The one where I started a £7 quilt

A while ago I joined a Facebook group called the £7 Quilt Group, I blogged about it here. I've had the fabric for about three months but just haven't had the time to do anything.

Today I started sewing random strips from my stash

 

And I've pinned triangles from the £7 bag to them, with a plan to make half string and half solid HST blocks. I think it may be a bit busy, but enough of the strips are I-spy type fabrics that I think it will make a fun quilt for a child.

 

I'll be adding fabric to the "bucket" and then it will be ready to be passed on . . . If you fancy joining in the fun, search £7 quilt on Facebook and add yourself to the group.

  2. The more fun colours and patterns - the better for the kids quilt! I love your idea of the string/solid HST blocks - they'll make a great quilt for a kiddo :)
