I love that, @Sheilago   :love:


I’d like to do something like that with my blocks from the boom swap.  ::thinks::

I've been spending a lot of time on Pinterest saving numerous scrappy quilts trying to find ones I like...and there are a lot I really like.

I'm still hopeful I'll join in with this.  :thumb:

I have 86 quilts on my scrappy quilts board, so no shortage of ideas  :laughing:

I’ve booked a workshop to make McCalls M7324 in March.  I’ll be buying online as our local fabric shop has closed down.  Please could you advise me on what is meant by “lightweight cotton?”  Are there any keywords I should look for?

TIA

I can’t view the second video, @SewRuthieSews .

Bonnie Hunter is the queen of scrappy quilts so there are a gazillion ideas and some free patterns on her website https://quiltville.com/index.html. ETA She also has a YouTube channel, @Lowena .

I’m going to dig out my Arkansas Crossroads and use scraps but in a limited number of colours.

I have a partially made scrappy quilt which I could finish as part of a sew-along.  I started making it using random scraps, but think I’d prefer something more cohesive, so I’ll have to do some unpicking before I can move on.

Please could you repost your video link, @SewRuthieSews ?

I’m really not sure, @Boppingbeth .  I want to make clothes that I will wear, but at 58 years of age, I still haven’t discovered my style  :rolleyes:
