I'm tinkering around today working on  a scrap quilt.  When I was cleaning a few weeks back I realized how much fabric I had already pre-cut into 2 1/2" strips, plus a lot of fabric that just isn't doing me any good sitting in a bin.  So I attacked the scraps and have started working on this today:

Pretty neat looking so far.  This quilt is going together really fast - I guess it helps to have all those 2 1/2" strips pre-cut already!  I'm using this pattern:

This pattern is called Tradewinds and is by Cozy Quilt Designs.  So far so good!  It's a very nicely written pattern and so easy to follow.

Miss Bella said to tell everyone hello.  She's lounging in one of my quilting baskets right now - I guess it was hard work picking a winner of the Scalloped Edge Tool.  What a life this cat has!

I'm off to do a little hand applique.  My back and neck are getting stiff from sitting at the sewing machine, so I  better stop while I'm ahead and not really over due it!  I think my Stars and Sprigs quilt that I'm working on is calling my name! I'm going to go flop down in my favorite chair with a cup of coffee and my applique!  Have a great day everyone!
