Scrappy Strip Quilt Started


Hey, I started on #3 on my to do list. These are all Heather Bailey Fresh Cut fabrics, but I don't have enough variety from this line for a really scrappy quilt. I'll need to augment them with scraps from my stash.
I got the idea from Two Dogs and Quilt who adapted a pattern from Heather Bailey. I modified the pattern from an 11 inch square to an 8 inch square because I wanted to use fabric from a jelly roll. A jelly roll is precut strips of fabric hat are 2 1/2 inches wide. The middle strip in each block is 2 1/2 inches; then I alternated a 1 1/4 inch wide strip (jelly roll strip cut in half) with a 1 3/4 inch wide strip. The small corners are a scrap.
