A few weeks back, I did something I said I would not do. I bought another Moda Scrap Pack. This time, it consisted of strips from the Miss Kate line by Bonnie and Camille. I trimmed all the strips to 2″ wide with my strip cutter die. I had just enough to make 72 of these 4 1/2 inch blocks.

I am debating setting them like this or alternating with solid white blocks to make a bigger quilt.
I worked on quilting my latest shirting quilt this past weekend. I am quilting a wonky grid through the triangles.

And I have been practicing McTavishing in the white space.

Clearly, I have not mastered the art of McTavishing! And why didn’t I use white batting? The seams are shadowing badly. Hopefully washing the quilt when finished will help that.
This quilt was finished quite some time ago and is finding a new home this week. Some friends of ours just welcomed a new baby into their home and this will be for him.
I am linking up with Patchwork Times for DWMonday.



Nice score with the scrap bag!
You have some great eye candy today. The strips make such a statement in such a simple quilt. I particularly like the red and turquoise together. And, the shirt quilt. wonderful. Your Mactavishing looks pretty good to me.
Another scrap bag 🙂 You get so much done! Love Miss Kate and again, I love that shirtings quilt!! Also don’t think I’ve met a star quilt that I don’t like 🙂
Love the Bonnie and Camille, looking forward to seeing what you do with it, if you add the white blocks there’s room for more Lovely Mctavishing!
Perhaps orient the rail fence blocks in groups of four, so that one color (red?) makes a pinwheel. Then sash each group of four with white. [Easier to show than to describe!]
cute baby quilt. wow the quilting looks great. love the new quilt , great fabric line
I think I might like the white in there to break up the colors a bit. maybe put a row of white squares up there to see what it would look like. just mho !
