Under en helg i juni månad, deltog jag i en quilt-along där vi sydde med scraps! Eva ”Bambi” Johansson höll i kursen och vi sydde så det slog gnistor från våra symaskiner! Sedan tog det mig ytterligare en vecka att sy klart quilten! Så snabbt har jag nog aldrig sytt en quilt tidigare!!! Allt, förutom det mörkblå tyget, är scraps.
During a weekend in June I participated in a quilt-along, sewing with scraps. The qal was hosted by Eva ”Bambi” Johansson and we sew faster then we have ever done before! It took me another week to totally finish the quilt and here it is: Everything, except the dark blue fabric are scraps!
SCRAP HAPPY DAY!! Min vän Kate från Australien och jag ville ha en särskild dag där vi kan skriva och visa hur vi använder våra överblivna bitar (scraps). Vi valde den 15:e varje månad! Du får gärna vara med och det måste inte handla om tyg. Inte heller behöver du skriva om det i din blogg varje månad. Bara skriv i kommentaren eller kontakta Kate om du är intresserad. Här nedanför finns en lista med namn och länkar till fler scrapsanvändare runt om i världen!

that’s beautiful. the dark blue banding stops it from being overpowering, and I love the little squares in the centre of the blue frames.

Gun, it’s fabulous! I do think navy is the best way to border scrappy blocks; it’s not as hard as black, and it makes the colour stand out more than grey or white. A really great use of scraps.

The scraps have ended up in such a wonderful quilt…they were going toward straw, but found themselves turned into gold!
