Default Scrappy #4 - Strip scraps
This is the year I am tackling all those scraps I’ve cut up over the past few years. This month, I focused on the misc. scraps of strips.

This is what I came up with for those strips. In 2016, as a new quilter, I stumbled on this Canadian blogger site and absolutely loved her quilt. She gave the free FPP pdf so I printed it out and filed it. I didn’t have scraps at the time but I figured, one day, I’d collect enough strip scraps to give this a try. Her pattern is called Eastern Sunrise designed by Happy Turtle. She no longer posts on her blog but it is still up. However, her FPP for the pdf link is defunct. If you look on her archives for 2016 finishes, you’ll see the completed quilt. She used white background and it’s bright and colorful, which is what appealed to me, of course. Strip sizes varied from 1 1/2 - 2 1/2”. The blocks are 7 1/2 finished…there are 72 blocks. Took forever….The lighting is bad for pictures…my background is medium chambray. There is no black, brown, tan, or cream. I made a huge dent in my strip scraps. Yea!
