Positively Scrappy

 A few months ago I was working on another scrappy Pinterest-inspired project, but I put it on hold to work on my Crossroads Wheel blocks instead. Here's the original inspiration photo, credit StitchMischief Dec. 2020. 

When last visited, I had all the blocks made and sewn into columns. I took them to Social Sewing this week and got them sewn together. Now it's a finished top:

Easy-peasy Plus blocks, black or charcoal prints against colorful low volumes. Sometimes these kinds of light prints can be hard to use so this was a good use for them, light but colorful, contrasted with the black. I like that the half drop layout prevents the blocks from looking like a big grid. 

The blocks finish at 8" so the quilt will measure 56 by 72", a good throw size. Since the colors and fabrics are gender neutral, this quilt can go to whichever of PCQ's charities needs it.
