My Quilting Buddy received a big bag of scraps from her sister. We sifted and sorted through them. I took the little pieces and made this little top for her as a thank you. Now my QB is going to quilt it and finish it up to give to her sister. The small squares finish at 1/2 inch-total quilt about 9" x 12".

Thanks everyone. 90% of my wee ones are used with small sized scraps--trimmings from scrap bin. So always a challenge to figure out how to place things. The squares were made from quick piecing with leftover 1 " strings. I like playing around with pieces to utilize the longer 1 inch strings better. One loses so much in the seam allowances otherwise. The green inner border I did cut from a 3 1/2 inch scrap strip about 12" long and that was given to me.
