comments labels quilt friday 11 january 2013 quilt and table runners for our loungeroom after seeing lots of scrappy trips around the world blocks and quilts pattern from quiltville on instagram i couldn t help but go through the stash and try the pattern out so much fun and easy to do i started off doing 3 table runners for the nesting tables in our loungeroom then i thought maybe i will just make a small quilt with the leftover fabric rather than put it back on the shelf enough fabric left over for a large quilt that covers the 2 1 2 seater couch cameron thought the blocks were great and he wanted to put them together into a pattern so after laying it out on the floor and him playing with the blocks for 1 2 hour this is what he came up with it is now his favourite quilt i didn t put any fabric back on the shelf i used up some extra blocks on the backing as well posted by nicole phil at 03 53 no comments labels quilt scrapping wednesday 19 december 2012 last primary school teacher
