Sew Mama Sew post in 2009<\/a>. I had several scraps from the muslin I had dyed for my wedding in 2005 and thought the pattern would be a fun use for them. I started the quilt over a year ago; finished a 12\u00e2\u20ac\u009d square area before I put it aside for other projects. <\/p>\n![\"wpid-DSC03674-2012-03-11-14-44.jpg\"](\"http:\/\/www.believemagic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/wpid-DSC03674-2012-03-11-14-44.jpg\")

In an effort to have no more UFOs in my studio, I started stitching the small pieces to the quilt sandwich again. After finishing section the width of the quilt, I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have the heart to keep going. So I pulled out some larger scraps and started sewing them on adding extra quilting so that the quilting on the larger pieces was balanced with area where the small scraps were used. <\/p>\n

I used a self binding technique wrapping the top fabric around to the back and threw in the wash to see what would happen. The edges frayed nicely but required some trimming. The red pieces did bleed a bit, despite using a color catcher. The pinkish areas blend okay with the colors around them so I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t too upset. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a fairly happy quilt that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sure a child will love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
