I am really not sure how much of this quilt I have shown you but it is the 9 Patch, Make one a day Quilt by Crazy Mom Quilts . Yes I am late but I still kept going and this is now where I am…..
I had the top done and now it was time to add the little 2 1/2 inch squares to make the border.
I had an extra jelly roll of the fabric I used; Berry Delicious by Moda.
I decided to make strip sets from the fabric.
I decided to make strip sets from the fabric.
I came up with quite a few sets.
It was time to cut them into 2 1/2 inch squares, so I pulled out my Accucut studio 2 1/2 inch strip die and got to work!
I layered the strip sets horizontally on the die and cranked.
Now I can sew them end to end to make the border.
Super fast and an easy way to add a lot of squares together!
Border on!!
Off to layer and pin!

It looks like you are having way too much fun! Delicious colours and lovely quilt!
ReplyDeleteGo superwoman!
ReplyDeleteThis will look fantastic!! I love the colors too. Nine patch is classic, you just can't go wrong.
ReplyDeleteThat looks amazing! I use that same fabric for the Quilt-Along that Crazy Mom Quilts had this past summer (2010). I still need to quilt mine.
ReplyDeleteIt really is such a great quilt. Using the strip cutter certainly speeds things up.
ReplyDeleteWow! That cutter is great. So is the quilt. Love the bright colours.
ReplyDeleteWow, Jane! I love your new look!! Blue with touches of pink...fantastic, exactly like your studio!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great holiday :)
I adore this quilt. The fabrics are so cheerful and look brilliant against the white. Can't wait to see it with the border.
Wish you a very Happy and Peaceful New Year!! Happy Stitching!
Better late than never :) I haven't tried making squares with my strip cutter yet. I do like how you make the strip sets and then cut them, great idea! Anything to make the process quicker so that we can move on to the next project.
ReplyDeleteOh wow they are perfect! I love them. I'm a bad friend. I've not visited you for a while. Wishing you a happy new year.
ReplyDeleteI love scrappy quilts! And I love my Accuquilt too - isn't it wonderful to be able to cut those strips like that? blessings, marlene
