Scrappy Strawberry


Have you heard about Lori Holt’s new book, Farm Girl Vintage?  I’ve seen bits of it here and there around Instagram but it wasn’t until I saw it in person and had a friend show me how awesome it is that I had to buy it for myself.

There are a few projects in the book that are now on my to-do list, but one little block went immediately to the top of the list -

I just thought this little strawberry block was so sweet!  I pulled out my bin of 2.5” squares and found my favorite reds along with a few greens.  It didn’t take me long to make the one block.

I quilted it last night, and bound it this morning while I caught up on some podcasts.

Sometimes these quick little projects are so fun.  It’s nice to start and finish something in the same week :)

The finished block measures 12” and I added a 2” border all the way around to frame it up. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great Friday (yay for Friday!) and if you haven’t had a chance to enter the book giveaway on my last post, be sure to click back and leave a comment.  Giveaway ends on Monday!

Oh and Lori is doing a Farm Girl Vintage sew along - you can join in over on her blog!  It will be fun to see what everyone creates!
