Getting close on triple 4 patch

About 25 blocks to go! I'm pleased with how the colors are going together. I didn't do any color planning. Just cut scraps and sewed. Gracie is helping me arrange them.

Inspiration


Went to the quilt show in shell knob yesterday. I was inspired by this t shirt quilt. I've been saving shirts and this setting is exactly what I'm looking for!






- so the show always puts me in the mood. So I finished six more blocks today. 39 done. 81 to go. So happy to be 1/3 done.

Loving my scrap quilt

I'm getting more blocks ready for my triple 4 patch. I have 33 complete and it's just been a joy to work on. Old scrap quilts were what I always loved about quilting. And going through my stash has reminded me of that love. I even opened a couple of kits that I decided I would never do and that freed me from the feeling of an undone project. And added more wonderful fabric to my stash. I'm sure at some point I will fall in love with a pattern with wonderfully matched fabric. But right now I can't wait to start my next scrappy quilt.

Triple 4 patch. Coming along

I'm really enjoying using up pieces and scraps. I'm already contemplating my next one. Maybe just 2 in squares alternating with white. I'm averaging 2 to 4 blocks a week. So may be quilting soon. Think I'm going to hand quilt with thicker thread and big stitches.
