How to Make a Scrappy Quilt Pattern

Calling all scrappy quilters! Here is a fantastic free quilt pattern to show off some of your scraps. It comes to use from APQS.

If you read my posts then you know I am all about scrap quilts. I love them and I have a lot of scraps that I am always trying to use up. This pattern is called Strudel and it is adorable. It is also easy to make and used pieces that are 2 1/2″ wide. That is perfect for all of those jelly roll strips you have left over from a pack.

Measuring about 51″ x 65″, it makes a great lap quilt. If you have a little experience it would be easy to make this larger too. The downloadable pattern is easy to follow too.

You can find this free pattern here: Strudel

I recently treated myself to “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” by Jennifer Chiaverini for the upcoming holiday season. As a fan of the Elm Creek Quilts series, I couldn’t resist diving into this heartwarming tale of Christmas traditions and family legacies.

The anticipation of exploring the holiday festivities at Elm Creek Manor is palpable, especially with Sylvia Bergstrom Compson, the Master Quilter, at the helm. Sarah McClure’s eagerness to bring Christmas cheer to the manor adds an extra layer of excitement as she uncovers a curious Christmas quilt with a rich history spanning generations.

As I eagerly await immersing myself in this delightful narrative, I’m already captivated by the promise of cherished memories, family bonds, and the timeless traditions that have endured through the years. With each page promising glimpses into the past and the present, I’m bracing myself for a heartwarming journey filled with love, hope, and the spirit of giving.

Being a part of the Elm Creek Quilts series has been a joyous experience, and I can’t wait to unwrap the magic of “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” this holiday season. So, no spoilers, please—let the enchanting tale unfold as I cozy up with this beloved series once again.
