This is one of five I have done (just about to post pics of two more!) A friend gave me a bag of 6" squares cut from shirts last year to make "a quilt" 2 have already been sent, 2 others ready for quilting and this was the last of the scraps with a few fat quarters added!! I hadn't realised there were so many squares!! The challenge w as to find different blocks to make with the same fabrics!!
