Last year I made my first ever quilt - for my younger daughter.
I learned a lot along the way!
Since then, I've had another bag of similar fishy fabric scraps that I was given - just waiting for me to whip up another quilt for my older daughter!
Finally I've made a start!
I've cut lots of squares - ironing and cutting from the misshapen scraps I was given! And I added some plain colours to match too!
I've also got a pile of old blankets - and baby rugs that I made years ago, from which I will cut the fleece to use as the batting for the quilt.
As to the backing and the binding, I've not yet decided - I'll make up the quilt first, then I'm sure there'll be something in my stash that I can use!!
This project has been waiting a LONG time to be done - so I'm on a mission to finish it this week!
Have I bitten off more than I can chew?
I'll post more tomorrow and let you know!
