Scrappy Postage Stamp Quilt – Yes Another

A scrappy postage stamp quilt can highlight fun fabrics.  Could these be an updated version of I-Spy quilts?  My friend Rachael noted, “Any fabric is cute if you cut it small enough.”  While I don’t gravitate towards novelty fabrics, in small bits I don’t mind them.

In this quilt there are dancing mice, owls, and cats.  Can you find them above?

With this version I started to hit the last bits of a couple of fabrics.  I enjoy seeing them spread across different quilts.  Each time they add to the story of the quilts I have made.  They look different than the last project they were used in.

For the backing fabric I chose the remnants I had of some yardage.  That brown print is from Sugar Pop right?  Years ago.

With all of my baby quilts I hand embroider the baby’s name for the back.  I place them in the upper right hand corner.  That personalized touch gets rave reviews.  How to do you mark or label your quilts?  I also have an iron on label that is placed in the lower left hand corner of the back.

I buy my labels from boodybabies on Etsy.  There are a variety of sizes and shipping is fast.

This is baby quilt 13/40 for the 2018 goal.
