Last Sunday, I shared my process for starting a new scrappy strip quilt out of some leftover fabrics.
Today, I am ready to share the finished quilt!
I am really pleased with how it turned out. I hope that it finds its way to some young teen.
This quilt measures about 55 x 70.
There are some great inspirational saying on some of the fabrics.
I used this fabulous striped fabric that Nann sent me long ago. I love this fabric so I have been holding onto it until the perfect quilt came along. I think I still have enough for another quilt.
Now that I finished this project, I am going to have to find some more scrappy bits that inspire my next donation quilt. Not sure yet what that will be....
Maybe it is time to get out some orphan blocks!

It is so lovely. Glad to see that you can find time to have fun with scraps. Enjoy! ;^)
Lovely quilt! Those sayings are just what a teen needs. You are proving that just about any scraps can make a great quilt. Which makes me think about some stuff I have in the basement ... hmm... Thanks for the inspiration, and for Oh Scrap every week!
Perfect for a teen!
That is a lovely finish! The back is perfect!
Very nice strippy quilt. It's a great way to use bits and pieces of WOF yardage. Except, I noticed how you made some smaller fabric become width of fabric. Brilliant.
A great quilt for a teen! That striped backing adds a lot of fun to the front. Congrats on a very fun finish.
I like the encouraging words in the quilt -- and so glad that striped fabric has found another home.
Cynthia your finished quilt is so lovely. Thanks for hosting us on your party
