@imfeelincrafty and I brought our three-year stint to a close. Our final quilt was The Last Hurrah, which was destined for QuiltCon 2019. It contained 185 string-pieced diamonds, and of course in cutting those, scraps happened, small odd-shaped striped bits.
The bits that I trimmed myself were stuffed in a plastic bag and put away for another day. That day happened last week, when I just started sewing a bunch of them together, arranging them in an improvisational diamond pattern.
For quilting, I focused on one of the diamonds, and using Aurifil 50wt #2021 (natural white), spiral-quilted around it all the way out to the edges. Then I went back and filled in said diamond with horizontal lines.
The little quilt finished at 20 1/2" x 22 1/2", and with a two-tone binding, is just a little reminder of a very good time
