Erica very quickly puts designs and writes quilt patterns so I have the opportunity to test quite a few. The most recent was the Iris Quilt and Erica wrote a post on her blog showcasing her pattern testers quilts!
Mine is the next to last one on this page http://www.kitchentablequilting.com/2020/07/the-iris-quilt-pattern-testers-quilts.html When I saw this quilt pattern I instantly thought how perfect it is for scraps! So I pulled all the scraps I could find. It went together so fast and easy. I had a very big stack of 2 1/2" strips in the light aqua color and decided to use it for the background sashings. The quilt cost me zero dollars and when finished, I donated it to my church for a donation quilt to Lutheran World Relief. Those quilts need to be 60 by 80" so I had to add an additional row. All in all it turned out beautifully. I'll likely make another one out of scraps. I have more of the light aqua strips.
this is a lot of fun!
