Oh baby, stick a fork in it, IT'S DONE!! ....all 96" x 108" of it....SEVENTY-TWO 12" blocks, ALL 2,592 TWO inch squares!!! The Saturday after Christmas, an impromptu quilt along blew up all over Instagram. I watched for two days, and then I just couldn't stand it anymore :) You can read more about my scrappy-trip HERE. . I started to make this beast on New Year's Eve and I finally finished it yesterday :) This quilt is for MY bed :) The fabric I used for this ALL came from my stash. Most of it is old scraps from projects years ago. I decided to make sure that there was a black row in the middle of each block. It made me feel more comfortable with all of the wild scrappiness ;D For the back and the binding I did have to buy new fabric. I hit the clearance rack at Gracie Lou's. These are three fabrics that I have been eyeing for a while now. They have the PERFECT amount of funkiness for this scrappy monster! For the binding, I found this black and white text print from the GREASE fabric line ...also on the clearance wall ;) Now I just need to come up with Euro pillow shams to match.... hmmm, what ever shall I do?
