Default Using Up the Stash

All the leftovers went into a bin. Then I cut them into 3 inch pieces and sewed them all together into long strips to make a quilt like this.

The aim was not to *think* too much about it, and just be surprised at what it made when I got through...

Random 3inch strips certainly made for a vibrant, fiery pattern; it looks very nice and warm.

Nice use of those leftovers. Bet it went quick using 3-inch strips.

Nicely done. You had a color palette of mostly blues with a few teals and oranges so the quilt came out fabulous.
