Is that yellow with blue or blue with yellow?

I love the simple geometry of the bento box pattern. There are so many different ways to combine the blocks. This one is approximately 30" by 42" and will be for Project Linus. I used 1 1/2" strips for this one. I think I have finally used up the baggie of 1 1/2" pieces that were given to me at a Kincardine Sunset Quilters Guild meeting. As the saying goes, so many scraps so little time. Piecefully, Joanne

  1. Whichever it is, it's very pretty. I like the layout, because even though it's scrappy it all works together, and much more dynamically than if you'd limited it to just three fabrics.

  2. What a beautiful quilt. Using up a gifted bag of scraps and turning them into a donation quilt feels good on so many levels.

  7. Nice job. I do like yellow and blue together -- enough that my own bed quilt is in those colors. Extra bonus that the scraps were given to you.
