Crumbs, its a flimsy!


This was supposed to be a 4' x 5' beach rug. I trimmed all the strips the other day that had been pieced for a couple of years, put them into 12'' squares and trimmed again and kept piecing. I will make this into a quilt, not a beach blanket, its 6' x 7'!  I had no idea that there were so many crumbs.  Just think, I could have thrown all this away! It will be a great one to practice my free motion quilting on as it won't be visible. 

I have just enough left for a mug hug rug!

I have got a little further with the 'real' beach blanket and papered some more hexies for 'Darwin's flower garden'.  These sets are almost done now.
