Judy L’s Stash Quilt top is finished! This was really fun and quick to do. The creams/tans were leftovers from another quilt. The original quilt was shades of cream to coffee for the background, very scrappy, with a great red for stars. Loved that quilt. I almost forgot about the leftovers, because they were in a box on the shelf (yes, it was see-through, but I never looked at it!). I added some blues, burgundy/rust, and gold/brown fabrics, all from stash. The burgundy/rose paisley fabric for my setting triangles and border was a 7-yard cut on my shelf, bought it ages ago for a back, and it was never the right thing to use. It’s also not the greatest quality fabric, but now that it’s all stitched up, it’s okay! I will use the rest of that piece to piece together the backing and for binding.
For fun, go to this link. It is Judy’s post of the last part of our instructions. Scroll down to the end of the post, and you will see clickable names where you can look at other people’s completed Stash Quilt. And be sure to check back, because there will be more people adding their names as they finish their quilts. It’s always interesting to see what different quilters do with the same pattern.
Thanks, Judy, for sharing this pattern and encouraging us to just go pull some fabrics off the shelf and make something! It was a lot of fun.
