With regards to the batting, I frequently use "franken batting", meaning that I stich little leftovers together by machine (big zick-zack stich). It is fast and easy and suits my "no waste policy"!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12618827682680196466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-48140489962911452972018-01-27T23:32:25.977-06:002018-01-27T23:32:25.977-06:00Yes, I DO think that is a great way to use up scra...Yes, I DO think that is a great way to use up scraps!

I sure can . . . and I believe I might have an orphan block or two around if I were to do a search and rescue. The quilting really makes it pop and I'll bet it was a quickie finish too.
