Basted and quilted a scrappy rectangle today to make a patchwork dog bed, it features 330 scrappy 2.5" squares & I used a scrap of batting. Simple quick meandering lines quilting. I added a simple backing with a zipper slot so I could insert a couple of cheap store bought pillows.

I've begun a new EPP project!
My Scrap Satisfaction mystery design is available free in four quarterly e-zine issues that I release throughout 2025. This year the design is an EPP project. There are 2 sizes of hexagon template to choose from. I'll be using the tiny hexagons.

I made another 100 patch scrappy block yesterday. That's 7 blocks so far & there's heaps of fabric squares left. I didn't really expect those couple of piles of 'busy print' mini charm leftovers to make so many blocks! It's great to de-stash scrappy clutter once in a while with an easy scrap quilt!

I started the weekend with five ready to bind quilts on my to-do list! It was a relief to finish the final one π€£ then I made a large roll of scrappy bindings to replenish my binding hoard.
