I am so excited to share this post with you.
I've been working for months on a paper piecing project that has really stolen my heart...
This is "Abundance" a Bonnie Hunter scrap quilt.
She named it that because of how many scraps are in it and she wasn't kidding.
To took over 11 yards of scraps (according to Bonnie) and much of it was done with as little as 1 1/2" scraps. See, there is a reason we keep tiny stuff!!! HAHAHA
I love the optical illusion you get, because the white scraps are narrower.
I would love to tell you I am now scrap free, but I would be a big ole liar!
For the world I don't know how that happens.
And that's what I have been up to!
What's on you sewing table?
This is so pretty! Love the scrappy look.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is OMG!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my word!! This is stunning!!!!!!! I simply cannot imagine sewing all those itty bitty pieces together. You deserve to be excited and proud of it.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous finish! Are you going to do Bonnie’s new mystery?
ReplyDeleteIt looks faboolous!
ReplyDeleteThat’s so pretty. I did something very similar a couple months f years ago and you’re right, still have lots of scraps.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE this. It is one of my favorites of Bonnie’s. It looks amazing. Great job.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning! You should be so pleased, what a lot of work it is and paper pieced....yikes!
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing effort. You are so good at sticking with these big ones with millions of pieces.
ReplyDeleteI agree about the optical illusion effect. Love it.
PS. Thanks for your lovely sentiment on FB.
