Ages ago - two years ago maybe? - I hung a small quilt in our Little Free Library. Just 9" x 12", it was begun in September of 2019, on a touring bus, somewhere between Paris and Beaune, France.
Fast forward to this week when I was restocking our LFL, and noticed that the little quilt was gone. No problem. I'm fine that someone claimed it, but it made me think I should hang another quilt up, and see if it finds a new home too. This small (9" x 9") quilt, which I named "Fragments," was created straight from the scrap basket.
I began with a tiny pieced scrap I'd come across a few weeks ago and kept for just such a time as this.
Until it was large enough, and ready to make a scrappy back, baste, and consider quilting options.
Using Aurifil 50wt 2612 [Arctic Sky], I did angled straight-line quilting, between 1/16" and 1/2" apart. I originally planned on a grid, but actually one direction seemed enough.
A scrappy binding was the obvious choice, and once I got a few photos, I took it right out to hang in our LFL. We'll see if it gets claimed. I should probably put a little sign up to let folks know that would be ok, so I'll give that some thought. Meanwhile, it was a fun little diversion. Now back to work on chair blocks!
