Blue for Brothers

I absolutely love the way 

white makes scraps pop!

The scrap quilts with white

 always look so crisp!!

Here is one of my favorites .

 It is also a go to 

"crumb block". 

 I always just called these 

scrap blocks . Now I call them all

"Bonus Blocks". They are 

a "Bonus " since they are from

found fabric!

I have made this quilt twice,

 both of these quilts have ended up with 

the family "Brothers" , one in 

Berlin, Germany and 

one in Naples, Florida.

It always starts out for me when I am

at loose ends and just want to sew. 

I grab a bag of blue and start joining. 

Yes, I have a box of blue bands 

on my shelf for just such times. 

I don't count it as a UFO but it is full of partial

bands and bits of blue. 

I add to the box in those routine sewing times, 

and it is very rewarding. 

Putting it all together is such a joy !

I know it will be fun and beautiful when assembled. 

I use each row to practice a different type of 

design.  It is fun and the result is 

always interesting. I have found 

many favorites with the practice 

ground it gives me. 

The next one(s) may be in a completely 

different color . I think those would look great 

and be very fun also! Maybe RSC on a larger scale!!!

Stay safe and sew on!
