\"2017_July<\/a><\/p>\n

At our July guild meeting, one of our members brought a quilt to show and tell that she had made from strips. \u00a0Her quilt was 9 blocks in a 3 by 3 setting. \u00a0I think she said she made her blocks 18″ square.<\/p>\n

I was so inspired from the meeting that I went home and the next day I dug out my bins of cut strips and started making my own version. \u00a0My blocks are 17 inches square. \u00a0I made them this size because that is the width of my cutting mat and it is so easy to use it to square up the block after piecing. \u00a0I decided I wanted more of a rectangular quilt so I went with 12 blocks in a 3 by 4 setting. \u00a0I need to decide on what colour to use for my sashing. \u00a0I am thinking of a solid grey.<\/p>\n

The inspiration for this quilt is a quilt called Woven by Kati Spence that is in a book called Scraps Inc.<\/p>\n

I still have plenty of strips left so I am trying to come up with a way to piece the back so that I can use more of my stash of strips.<\/p>\n

I realize this was a deviation from working on my UFO’s but I just had to give this one a try. \u00a0After all, making these blocks allowed me to work on another one of my goals which is to use up my stash of fabric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
