Every once in a while, we get a stack of already cut squares in a package. We do have a space to store these little jewels, but I am usually too inspired to play with bits that aren't my own.
In this case, these were flannel scraps that measured 6" square. I grabbed all the ones that I thought could work together and started sewing.
In no time at all, I had a sweet little quilt top. The red stands out a bit, but I think with the right backing and binding, we can make it work. I will tuck this away now until later in the year. This will be one of the quilts that go out in the big shipment of kid quilts at the end of the year.
Can you pass up a stack of squares?
I have proven over and over that I obviously can't!
