I dessa pandemitider och med allt julstök, är det skönt att ha en hobby som roar! Jag har haft som mål detta år att sy klart så många UFO:n (unfinished objects) som möjligt. Har väl gått sådär 🙂 Mitt senaste projekt är ett riktigt scraptäcke, som heter Calico Rose. Mönstret kommer från Wedding Dress Blue!
During these pandemic days and with all the preparations for Christmas, it feels nice to have a hobby that you like! My goal this year have been to finish as many UFO:s as possible. Didn´t do that well 🙂 My latest project is a scrappy quilt, named Calico Rose. The pattern is from Wedding Dress Blue

Jag gjorde även en scrappy baksida av tyger, som jag har ledsnat på eller bara hade just en liten bit kvar av. Lukkekanten gjordes av överblivna bitar från baksidan.
I also made the backing scrappy, using fabrics I got tired of or had just one small piece left. For the binding I used left overs from the backing.

SCRAP HAPPY DAY återkommer alltid den 15:e varje månad. Min vän Kate i Australien och jag tyckte det behövdes en speciell dag för alla scrappy projekt. Här nedanför finns en lista med namn och länkar till fler personer som sysslar med scraps och inte bara med tygscraps! Vill du vara med på listan? Skriv så i kommentaren eller kontakta Kate!

It is beautiful! In the pandemic I am also trying to finish things up – using scraps in the house already – it is amazing how many scraps there are!

Calico Rose is absolutely gorgeous!!! I love the backing and I must admit I never gave a thought to creating a backing other than a solid piece of material. The backing is wonderful and encourages me to think outside the box a little more.

Your quilt is beautiful, it has been a good year to use a small portion of all the scraps hiding in cupboards. Unfortunately there are still enough scraps to last several more years.

Thank you! Yes, there will always be scraps (I hope)!

Your Calico Rose looks great! I love sleeping under mine, quilted by a friend when I finished the top. I’m still working on Deanna design of Star Kissed, and have the top for Irish Stars ready to quilt.
