The Scrapbook Quilt

Over the past few weeks I've been creating 4.5" squares

using leftover strata and orphan blocks

as well as special scraps of fabric.

As I finish piecing each top

or quilting each quilt,

I'm saving leftover bits to make more squares.

I'm also gathering scraps from the classes I teach

and special scraps shared by others.

Each one holds its own set of stories.

I especially like the squares from quilts

that were made and then gifted.

I have no idea how many squares I need

to make myself a lap quilt

nor do I know how I want to frame/set these.

For now I'm just happy creating them

and watching the stack grow taller

one square at a time.
