Baby Quilts Anonymous
This is probably my favorite of the various patterns that I have been trying with the 4 patches. I may do more now that I have discovered another bolt of plain non-pfd white fabric as I used up the last of the one bolt. Funny how the bolts disappear but the scrap bag stays about the same.
I saw this variation on the Scrap Enthusiasts Facebook page and decided to try it. You could not do this one without a design wall and carefully moving pieces to your sewing machine. It is okay but I decided to try a different variation which I haven't seen anywhere so I guess it is my design!
This is the variation before it was finished. I finished it today but don't have the picture up yet! No need for borders on these three as they all measure about 40 inches square. I still have a huge pile of 4 1/2 inch squares and ended up with two 4 patches after done which I thought was amazing! There were also only 3 white squares left. I didn't plan this at all. Today I cut up the remainder of the first bolt into 4 1/2 squares and 2 1/2 strips so that I can make more 4 patches. After this batch, I may give the remainder of the squares and 2 1/2 miscellaneous strips to someone else. I get bored with the same fabrics after a while! While binge watching Death in Paradise on Britbox, started sewing the strips together to make more 4 patches!!
Stay tuned.
