      I thought at 72 my patchwork days were over, but this is a fantastic way to do patchwork without silly stuff.
      Very beautiful with no fuss.

    I love this idea so much. It’s both a scrap quilt and not. I imagine myself cutting all of the blocks needed to make a quilt from solid varieties of one color and then just adding any scraps along the way. Leaders. A couple thrown in at the beginning or end of a sewing session until I have used all of the solid blocks. Oh I love this idea. Thank you for sharing.

    I love this video! Now I know how to make not-so-ho-hum half square triangle blocks and the fact I’m using up my crumbs is a plus. The best tip of all I feel was how you sew your blocks together. With your method, I’m marking just one block. Before, I would make slips for R1B1, R1B3, R1B5, etc., “R” meaning “row” and “B” meaning block. With a 7x7 quilt, I’m writing on 28 slips of paper and pinning them when all I could have done was write on 7! And then your tip about odd and even-game changer!
    Thank you so much for a wonderful video.

    I'm making the beige version for my son. I'm using 2.5" squares so I can use jelly rolls. I'm also using EPP, and sewing 4 little blocks by 4 little blocks to make a bigger block. It goes together pretty fast.
