My scrap bins are constantly overflowing, and this year I joined the Summer Scrap Bash 2025 to see if i could reduce them. I decided to cut scraps into 1.5" to make a scrappy log cabin quilt.
I dug through my scrap bins to find suitable scraps for kids since this quilt was going to be donated to the children's ward at my local hospital. There are novelty fabrics, different animals, cars and tractors, and lots of other interesting fabrics in the log cabins.
The placement of the 8.5" blocks (unfinished) are totally random, I only aimed for a very colorful quilt that will be suiltable for both boys and girls. 48 blocks ended up with the finished size of 48" x 64".
A donated duvet cover made a perfect quilt back. The quilting ws done with the walking foot in a simple crosshatch design, using variegated Aurifil thread #3817 .
Photo session was done on a windy day with my apple tree in the background.
This is my third charity quilt for the year 2025, and number 114 all time for the children's ward at the hospital.
Keep on quilting!
