Here is my scrappy braid, entirely from my scrap bins. This is the light tone one and I am making a dark one too. I have enough scraps to make several of these fun quilts.
I used 2.5" x 7.5" strips with a 2.5" square for the center. The sashing is 1.25" (finished width is .75")
I truely enjoy making these. Have fun with your creation and be sure to post so we can all enjoy it.

with the backing which also came from my stash and not planned this way either. I looked through so much fabric till I came across the zinnias. I think it works quite well and makes me smile when no plan comes together this well!

Enjoy the doing.
