Dumpster Diving 11 - Mischief Maker - the Quilt

And then it was finished . . . 

Dumpster Diving 11 - Mischief Maker

48" x 60"

This was my 2020 Rainbow Scrap Challenge project.

I made two blocks each month January-October

loosely following Angela's color prompts.

Each of the blocks was quilted using

one of twenty different colors of Glide thread.

(you can read all of the previous posts

for this quilt using the label for Dumpster Diving 11

below the quotation at the bottom of this post)

I saved the excess binding from Spotty Town - 

and there was just enough to use on Mischief Maker.

(just enough = less than 8" leftover)

This is the second of the quilt's corners.

This is the third corner.

And this is the fourth corner.

The colorful birds were absolutely the right choice.

(one consistent bobbin thread was used)

I know that I've declared Mischief Maker

to be the end of my Dumpster Diving series . . . 

but that does not mean I'll stop playing with 

the boxes of leftover 1.5" scrappy strips.

There will be enough, even after the six Etcetera quilts,

to make lots of different kinds of utility mats.

Because, in the end, these little bits and pieces 

are just so much fun to work with and,

when sewn together, have so much impact.
