Tip Tuesday… We had a function to attend on Saturday and I needed a gift. Normally, I have quilts in the studio I can give away . This time I had to make a quilt from start to finish. Lucky for me I have an IKEA storage container that’s filled with 2 1/2 inch squares . I didn’t need to cut anything. All I had to do was sew , press , sew , press & put together.. everything was scraps, including the backing. I pieced left over fireside. Does it match no but again does it have to? It’s a scrap quilt.. the young couple loved it. So tip Tuesday use your scraps and if it’s possible have them cut to the same size. Also have a couple of quilts done to gift . When people know you quilt they expect a quilt as a gift …. Just saying .
