Design Wall Monday

step #5


On the design wall is the summer mystery quilt that my local quilt guild is doing online. It's a project to encourage quilters to keep sewing through the long covid summer. I am using up some older, less loved stash to make a donation quilt.




The blue/purple border and most of the star points were from a bag of block trimmings from a quilt my friend Marj was making back in February. This was the perfect project to use up these colourful scraps.

step #6

This is the most recent step of the mystery. I used up every bit of that black border fabric with about 1/4" to spare! There are 2 more steps in this mystery project and I'm intrigued about what we will be adding next.

  4. It is a fun, scrappy creation. But I have to admit that I wondered about you needing anything to encourage you to keep sewing during the long Covid summer. :)

  5. What an interesting design. And how good it feels to use up the scraps of the scraps.
