Beaquilter Sampler Sew Along Finished Quilt

All finished and I like it! A guy friendly quilt, I think. It was made with scraps and yardage from the "Stitch In Color" collection. I didn't make the last two blocks Bea posted in her sew along. Instead I sewed together thirty-six 2.5" squares cut from small scraps to make a block. And I used a block made by a friend for the 12'th block..
It's quilted with meandering free motion and the binding is scrappy.


The back is pieced with fabric left over from making the front. I may have enough scraps left to make a baby quilt next year.


For interest I sewed a row of scrappy blocks into the backing. After a go in the washer and dryer, this one finished at 50" x 63.5". Thanks Bea.
