After a little sewing room clean up, I was pondering what project I wanted to work on next. I felt the need to work with brights and since this is on my PhD list with Myra’s challenge I choose it.
I went to my scrap bins and pulled out a bunch of bright scraps that I then cut into strips varying in width from 1 1/2″ to 2 1/2″. This is what is left in the bucket after I sewed the strips together.
Once the strips were sewn together I cut them into 6″ widths and used my 45* wedge to make these triangles.
Next I added Kona white and sewed them into these squares. I have a bunch more to make but I’m pretty happy with the progress I have made on this happy quilt.
Hopefully soon I will have a good sized flimsy to add scrappy borders to. And before to long quilt and bind so this quilt can be enjoyed.
I am going to have to make one of these quilts one of these days. I just love the look of yours!!
Scrappy goodness.
I really like quilts with a lot of white. This one especially tugs at me. Must. Not. Succumb.
Lovely! Bright and cheerful and out of scraps. It just doesn't get any better than that!
Very nice, I love the contrast with the white….must put this one on the list!
It looks like this one will be done in no time! And it's beautiful!
What a great way to use scraps! I am remembering this one. Thanks so much!
I love it Em..great use of scraps..

This looks so fun. I may have to try it. Uh oh. Another quilt to add to my every growing list.
This will certainly brighten your winter days!
Love it, I've become aware that we can never have too many scraps! You put yours to great use here!
Way to use your scraps woman! I was going to use my scraps in log cabins.
So pretty, Emily! Can't wait to see this one finished!
What a super happy blocks! I love your talent.
These are really pretty! Well done!
