4" high stack of Boxed Square blocks April 2021 |
Once the 2.5 inch strips were cut and prepped for the Boxed Square blocks, I couldn't stop sewing. It was extremely satisfying to see the stack of blocks grow higher and the stacks of strips grow smaller.

chain-piecing two-patch blocks |
After the Boxed Squares kits were all sewn, I tackled the stacks of 2.5 inch squares, sewing them into two-patch units that would eventually become four-patch blocks.
Creating blocks from scraps is almost like making a "free" quilt.
You are making the best of your scraps!!
ReplyDeleteSo true - it feels like a free quilt. In a way it really is free since you didn't buy anything new to make it. Love those boxed squares and thinking I should put that back onto my list of future quilts to make again.
ReplyDeleteI like that block! Im going to have to add it to my box of tricks!
ReplyDeleteI like free quilts! What size block is the center of your boxed squares? Is it from Maryquilts.com? I should cut some of these for leader enders. That pile of blocks is awesome. Do they have an assigned quilt yet?
ReplyDeleteFantastic work on these scraps---you're right, a free quilt!
ReplyDeleteWow! That's one big pile!
ReplyDeleteFree quilts are always good aren't they? Your pile of scraps looks great! I love how you're using everything to the utmost.

Looks great, and as you say, so satisfying!
