I recently bought a fantastic scrap pack from the lovely Kelly at KelbySews. It was the triangle offcuts from this gorgeous quilt
She very kindly included all the white triangle offcuts too and a few days ago I went mad and chain pieced them all into HSTs with no plan of what they were actually going to become.
Sometimes I love mindless sewing just because I want to sew something, and I always love playing with other people's scraps (and Kelly's scraps smell lovely - I must find out how she gets her fabric to smell so nice!)
After making all these little 2.5" HSTs, it struck me they would be perfect to become a baby quilt for my baby nephew, so after playing with the layout, and a marathon piecing and quilting session (my children were staying with their Granny for a few days) those HSTs now look like this.
And my new Nephew Elliot finally has his quilt :)
Happy Friday! :)
