Welcome to Week Three of the Scrap Fabric Love Scrap Buster Sew Along 2023!
We are making plus sign quilt blocks (sometimes called Swiss cross blocks) and we are only using our fabric scraps!
You can make any number of blocks and you can make a small sewing project or a whole quilt.
In today's video, I am showing my quilt top construction as well as how I made my scrappy backing fabric.
I also have suggestions for small projects and lots of photos of progress from other sew along participants.
Feel free to leave me a comment to ask a question, email me at hello@scrapfabriclove.com or tag me on instagram @scrapfabriclove
You can also use the hashtag #scrapfabriclovesewalong to share your progress photos or you can email me your photos too - I would love to share some on the channel.
