New Scrap/stash buster
#53
Have been working on this on and off all week, below is my progress so far. I’m trying to prove to a few ladies in our quilt guild that any combination of fabric can work, you just have to be inventive. I have also sewn 2.5 inch pieces together so I have a piece big enough to cut a 3.5 inch square and a 2 inch strip. It doesn’t take much to make me happy.
For me, more is better when doing scrappy.
Love the progress you are making.
peace

Just a quick peek at what I have done with this pattern and bin of purple scraps. I even found a large piece for the backing. Many more blocks to go!
Sorry if you have seen this on other forums, but it was part of the my work for virtual quilting week-end and my efforts toward the fabric moratorium.

I have been making scrappy four patches per Bonnie Hunter's "leaders and enders." I have a gazillion of them and had just started to wonder what I was going to do with them. This is perfect. My smaller squares will be different than the larger ones and I will have to alter the steps to account for the completed four patches, but that's simple. I will have to violate my no-fabric purchase-in-2020 pledge to get the solid for the chain, but I can manage that.
Can't wait to see it in process!
