I finished my bright birch tree quilt top! This is the third version of this pattern that I've made to date. I decided to abbreviate the name to BBT 3, just for fun. :) (The pattern is available
here.)
So many tiny scraps were used up in this quilt top!
At one point I was running low on tiny scraps because I used most of them up previous blocks, but thankfully that problem was short lived. All I had to do is wait a week or two, and there were plenty more from other projects!
These blocks finish at about 12 1/4" square. Even though I love these birch tree quilts, I'm determined to branch out (hahahaha!) next time around and use my tiny scraps in another format. I've got a few ideas.....and plenty more scraps!

Love it and your blog Amanda

So funny you posted this I'm working on my FIRST BBT!!! Just finished block 12 out of 30!!
I love the selection of solids you've used for backgrounds in this version!
I love the BBT's! I should have enough random color scraps soon to make my own. YAY! I can't wait!!!
Such a fun spot of color. Congrats on BBT3
I love it. Very cute and bright.
I bought your pattern and made one. I have a bright Kona layer cake waiting to make another one as I sew black and white and gray scraps for the trunks. Very nice quilt!
OK now, so I am working to finish up my UFO's and just HAD to go and buy your pattern. I L O V E this pattern...PDF'd and printed it off--it's in first place in my "Quilts I Want to Make" Binder--and yes
it is a B I G binder ;00000
I hope I just live long enough to make them all; some are patterns from the 80's. So:
Scrap basket look out, here I come...I will make this my "leader-ender"...so enjoy your linkups, too thanks for your lovely postings (I think hahaha)
hugs, Julierose
P.S. I canNOT believe you almost RAN OUT of scraps--that has NEVER happened to me..WOW Julierose
I am excited to begin my very first Bright Birch Trees. I have the pattern, heaven knows I have the scraps, I am on the look out for the bright solid backgrounds. Spring is around the corner, Shop Hop is in the future!
Way to use up those tiny scraps!!
Anxious to see more ideas for little (crumbs) scraps. Paula in KY

Can't wait to see what you so with your tiny scraps next. Love the colors in this quilt.
What a great way to use bits & pieces of fabric. One thing is it will go with any colour scheme!
So beautiful, so pleasing to my eye--I love this quilt!
I've had your pattern for a while and hope to make it this summer! Yours is beautiful!
I adore your BBT quilts! But how in the world are you NOT completely out of scraps all the time ;) even if you do start new projects.
So bright and pretty! I look forward to seeing what your next scrap idea is. And love your quips. :)
Love these colours, can totally believe it only took a few weeks for you to replenish your scrap stash !
