As I continue deeper into the stash closet, I found a bit of paisley yardage.

In my excitement, I cut it up into 4-Patch Stacked Posie blocks. On the left is the uncut paisley yardage and on the right are a few of the blocks!

Gosh! I love to make 4-patch blocks. This pattern allows the fabric to do 'all the work' for fun and interesting blocks.

I spent a little time thinking about my pile of fabric.

I decided to piece the greens into a background.

Sew a black inner/stop border and a scrappy ladybug outer border.

And, eh gads! Applique a few ladybugs across the quilt.

Time to check and make sure I'M NOT SICK! I almost NEVER voluntarily appliqué! In my defense, it's raggy edge...lol

While searching for some fabric in the closet, I ran across a bunch of ladybug prints leftover from this project. I also kept moving around a stack of greens that I just really didn't like anymore.

Does that happen to anyone else?! LOL





So I decided now is the time to join the two groups of fabric together!

So here we are...at the end of April and still 'safer at home'.

How many are really digging into the stash? Raising my hand here...

I discovered this outer border fabric recently and though it would look ok with the inner portion of the Simply Strippy. It has triangle of navy, white and orange in it. Of course, I found a little orange as the inner border to bring it all together. Although, the orange does look red in the picture...

See?!

Done to a flimsy in a jiffy! I'm using leftover 3.5 inch strips along with a few 3.5 inch WOF strips.

I simply sew the short end to short end then cut to desired length to get the inside of the quilt top. This time I think I cut to 50 inches, which is a tad too long. Next time, I'll cut my long strip into shorter intervals.

What does one do when you have leftover strips?

Stash them in the crumb box?!  or...

Make another (and very easy!) quilt!

This is Bonnie Hunter's Simply Strippy quilt pattern. I'm using the leftovers from my Bento Box and added a few WOF strips to the mix. I'll have another quilt top in a jiffy. :)
