You birch

Remember this fun project?

The birch tree quilt 

I had wanted to make an old fashioned coin quilt.

You know......strips sewn together in a long strip

And in between plain fabric maybe with applique. 

That was the ORIGINAL plan

Well 

then in blogland 

I started seeing these birch tree quilts 

Huh. I didnt need a pattern 

This would be fun play

I took some solids 

Loosely overcut them into LARGE blocks

Made an angled cut

Inserted  the strip section

Cut again

Wash,rinse,repeat

Then i cut them all the same with my 12.5 ruler

So cute

Dont cha just love that tail shadow? Hee hee

Or am I having a really bad hair day ha ha

I have ten so far

I think 4 across is good

Maybe by 5 or 6 down

So not quite halfway

Still fun to play though

And the bonus is the solid scraps make into 1.5 squares for my other postage stamp

Love a plan

Are you playing in YOUR scraps?
