The original version no longer available as I found that I just don’t like that pattern, or even the colors. Over the past summer while making baby and children quilts, I decided I really love playing with fun prints.
So, yesterday, I was playing with some leftover fabric and I decided to cut as much as I could into 2.5 inch strips. I was looking for the Potato Chip pattern as this uses it, and I had a hard time finding it, but I came across my old folder called Hidden Treasures and there it was! I looked at it and decided it needed an update on the colors, though I might still do it but in blue batiks later on. But since I made so many children’s quilt this summer, I decided to make it a little more scrappy with those prints! I think that some child will love it!
Here is a preview. My stack of what I am working with.
And the first two blocks.
They are so fast to make and very addictive! PLUS! What a great way to use up those novelty prints! I think these will make a wonderful eye spy quilt!
Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is Donna. My hubby and I are retired. We have twin daughters and are blessed with 4 grandchildren. We are owned by a cat, Purrl. who loves to supervise and is very nosy.
I have been quilting since 1996. In addition to making quilts for my family and friends, I also make charity quilts for Marjoree Mason Center and Valley Children's Hospital. Marjoree Mason Center is a local organization here that helps and supports battered and abused women and children get out of abusive relationships. Every Christmas I make several baby quilts for the women, with a small stuffed animal or toy.
I also belong to the San Joaquin Valley Quilters' Guild here in Fresno. Since I retired, I have been trying to finish most of my UFOs, but my stash is way out of control! I have lately gotten into designing quilts and enjoy that even more than sewing them! I love colors of all types and consider myself to be a true scrappy quilter and I do love playing with designs.
I am the owner/moderator of Scrappy Quilters on Facebook, where we are very active with many mystery quilts, challenges and swaps. I welcome you to come by and check us out at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ScrappyQuilters.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope to see you again soon.
