Leftovers are just another quilt waiting to happen! This fun quilt is made from strips of fabric that didn’t make it into a larger quilt. Always a frugal New Englander,I knew I’d find a use for them.

I cut the strips I had into 2 1/2” squares then sewed them into checkerboard blocks.

The red print batik I used to sash and border these blocks really sets them off.

The quilting design of spinning flowers in a royal blue thread adds to the movement and fun in this quilt. From bits of fabric just hanging around to a happy quilt. I even surprised myself with this one! This quilt is available for sale on http://www.eBay.com search for “scrappy batik quilts”.
