Welcome to Week Two 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 will get finishing options for these in week 3 of the sew-along.
In today's video, I am showing my block progress as well as the progress of some of my subscribers. I am also giving you options for quilt sizes and layouts, and talking about options for background fabric. I will also be showing you my improv version of this quilt that is paired with some orphan blocks and denim from old jeans and I’ll be talking Quilt-As-You-Go and answering viewer questions.
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.
Are you in?
What layout are you thinking of?
