    Default Batik Scrappy Swinging Checkerboards

    I made this Swinging Checkerboards pattern from QuiltedTwins.com, with my batik scraps and white muslin.

    And also finished this man's lap quilt with wood ducks, quilted simply.

    Wonderful pattern... scrap friendly. It turned out great. I imagine you have a great stash of fabric.

    Just wondering if you changed the size of the squares for the Swinging Checkerboards? Maybe 2.5" rather than the 2". Like the pattern but 93 X 100+ is a bit large for me "man-handle". Lovely finish and obviously inspiring a number of us.

    Thanks for the suggestion of how to use my batik scraps. I hope mine turns out as nice as yours.
