Default Barnraising Scrappy

I keep trying to use up my 2.5" squares, but the amount never seems to get any less.

This is a 62" x 93" scrappy arranged in the barnraising pattern. I constructed the blocks like log cabins. The flower-outline quilting was traced using a lightbox with a blue washout marker. The rest of the quilting is free form on a HQ16.

This is the first time I have tried machine stitching a faux-piped binding. I was surprised at how square the corners turned out. Here is the YouTube video I used: http://thequiltshow.com/daily-blog/1...5bfc3a371c1723

I love your layout. Yes, is it disappointed that after all we make with 2" squares, it doesn't make a dent in the stash!!

You did a beautiful job on the quilting. I love the flower idea. Maybe that is what I will do with all the 2 1/2 squares I have.

Beautiful quilting! My stash of 2 and 2.5 inch squares never seems to get smaller either. I think they are like dust bunnies under the bed and multiply themselves at night.
