How surprising this was..I was cleaning out a closet and in a bag of
scraps I found one, single page from Family Circle, 1985, that had a picture of a lovely, multicolored Kaleidoscope. I had obviously fell in love with it, and did again when I saw it. It starts out with a muslin square, in the middle is a small square of black, then larger and larger triangles of different colors. When the square is finished, the extra is cut off and each block is separated with a dark solid color, which is also used in just as wide binding. It is a smashing looking quilt and I'm going to make it this time!! I have many more scraps to use up!! |
Ohhh! take a pic and show us!

It's from SometimesCrafter blog. She has a tute on PP too, which is nice for those who haven't done that yet.
I have made several blocks now and still love it. Only work on it for a couple hours at a time, though. My friend is also making it. Neat pattern for use of smallish scraps. I can see it in scrappy plaids, polka dots, everything!! Here's the link: http://www.sometimescrafter.blogspot...ing-block.html |
thank you so much for the link. I have already pulled it up and go print it out tonight.

love it.

:D Scrap quilts are my favorite also. Is the postage stamp your original design? I belong to a quilting bee that is a Scrap Bee--all of us have so many of them--and we always looking for another swap.

It turned out to be the coolest quilt ever. |
