Simple Scrappy Treasures

Block of the Month

This scrap quilt measures 88” x 104”. It consists of 4”, 6”, 8” and 12” blocks. You will be instructed how many blocks to make of each. This pattern is “template free”. Since this is a scrap quilt in the true sense of the word, no fabric requirements are given other than the Navy Blue solid used to construct the Half-Square Triangle units on the inside border which will require approximately 1 yard (including the binding). We used over 34 different light and dark scraps for our quilt. Enjoy!!
