Sometimes the simple things are the best

Sometimes we spend a lot of time on a complicated quilt.  And I love the results.  But other times, the simple, time-worn, tried and tested approach is the best.  I'd been cutting three inch squares for a while.  And had worked out I needed about 864 to make a decent single bed sized quilt.

Back in August when I had a lot on my mind, I started sewing them together - other than organising colour groups together it was the mindless sort of sewing I needed.  When I got to the end though, I thought I needed to tie it all together somehow.  A piece of black and green and mustard marbled fabric was a great contrast to the reds, oranges and pinks that seemed to make up mos of the scrap squares.  And a Kaffe stripe was a fun binding.  I love this quilt for all sorts of reasons.

    

And Gussie looks pretty impressed by it too >>>>>  She an Abyssinian and very fussy, so it counts.
