I so like this way of using odds and ends to make a scrappy quilt. I have done more than one using batik scraps. Quick, easy and will deplete the scrap bin. Attached is one that ended up as a wedding gift. Our individual blocks are different sizes but the concept is the same and with the straight line stiching it is quick finish. Yeah, for you!

Would you mind sharing your cut sizes for your blocks? It’s beautiful. Thank you.

I saw many variations but after playing around in EQ8 I came up with a finished block of 9" x 9"

Center: 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"
Sides: 4 1/2" x 3"
Top/Bottom: 9 1/2" x 3"

I expect I will keep gobbling up my scraps making this simple quilt over and over for easy giveaway quilts. Hope this helps you and please do share what you come up with!

Is he named for the wonderful character from _A Wrinkle in Time_? It is a lovely quilt.

Very nice, I love scrappies, but I also love to do log cabins.
