Q4K 24-1 - 16-patch green flimsy

 I neglected keeping my scrap bins orderly last year.  I always follow RSC although I didn't find the time to participate last year.

January's color is green.  I did a thorough clean out of the green scrap bin. I cut pre-cut units where appropriate.  I also assessed the contents to decide what I could make from these leftovers.  I decided on the scrappy 16-patch.  Last week I made up 16 blocks, then decided to add a few more to make it a junior child quilt.

I had one lonely strip from a pooh bear which was added to lengthen at the top  It now has 20 blocks plus sashing.  The flimsy is waiting for a pin basting day.  It measures    43 x 56.


I'm joining these linky parties this week.  Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

  5. I love your 16-patch quilt! It makes me want to pull out some strips and make some blocks myself. The Pooh bear fabric is the perfect addition!

  7. Great quilt. Great job using the greens -- although I doubt all of the scraps are gone. I've done 16 patch quilts but then also made them into sawtooth stars blocks. But you put that Pooh strip to good use and tied it all together.
