Charming by Lissa Alexander

I saw a photo of this quilt on-line, and it appealed to me, so I made a smaller version of it. It finished at about 63x73. I hope to quilt it on my Crown Jewel as soon as get a little more practice on it.

By Charming, you think Charms were used in the original? A person could use any size squares to make this. I love it!!!! I don't really need anything new to start at retreat, though. Should I or shouldn't I? Could just cut up some squares out of scraps. What size should I use????? Hmmmmmmm

Thank you all. Rho, it's actually 63 x 78. Donna, I have to say I do enjoy piecing scrappy quilts. Sharon, I used 2 1/2" squares and 1 1/2" strips, because those are the sizes I cut from my leftovers. I also used some 2 1/2" strips that I cut into squares because I ran out of squares. I found an 8 yard piece of a tiny aqua print fabric that i had gotten from a friend to use as backing and I ordered some Warm & White for batting. It's going to take me a ton of time to clean up all the threads that are on the back of the top.

Another beautiful finish, Lois. That is a nice scrappy pattern. I still have a ton of 2x2" squares I could use for this pattern. I'm going to tuck the idea away for later. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful! That might just be the inspiration to get cutting scraps.
