A Flimsy Finish


With the exception of the white sashing, all of the scraps for this quilt top came from a bag of scraps that I purchased from Quilter's Nine Patch in Elmira for $5.  On second thought, it might have been two bags, so $10.  
The fabric collection is Fig Tree & Co. "Patisserie".

I was forced to improvise on one block - - 11 blocks are 16-patches, but I ran out or four-patches and had to rig up a 1 part four-patch, 3 parts split rail.  Big deal, eh?

  1. That is one sweet scrappy quilt! Great job! Thanks for the link to the Quilter's Nine Patch.... I was in Kitchener today and stopped also in Hawksville and St. Jacob's. Will have to find my way to Elmira next!
