Magic Crazy Patch Block aka Taming the Scrap Pile
#61
[QUOTE=Elaine433;5812853]I found that same pattern by another name a year ago. It called for cutting all the strips in different widths or just using up scraps. I made this quilt for my DIL last year for Christmas. If I can figure how to, I will post a picture.

I love the black sashing with the brights.

I have made 12 of these quilts without any foundation piece or sizing or spray starch. I have not had trouble with the bias going wonky and I use only scraps not precuts. I have used Warm and Natural, Bamboo, and polyester battings I like the nature fibers over the poly. I hope that helps.
Thank-you for the reply and advice CARSLO.. So sorry in my delay in thanks....a month good grief I guess I just missed your answer. All the same thank-you! :0)

String qults are so terrific...but I think I went about it the wrong way...I sewed my strips together...sandwiched it with cotton batting and flannel...and cut the blocks out..thinking I would sew the sandwiched sqs together, kinda like a quilt as you go...but I think I messed up...any ideas to what I can do which what I have created?? I really could use some advise..my sqs are about 15x15..alot of fabric and alot of time invested. Thanks for any advise that comes my way.
If you want to attach the pieces together without sashing strips, you'll need to cut off the excess batting before sewing them together, or just after.
