During this period of enforced stay-at-home, every quilter I know has made a quilt using only fabric from their stash. Some of them have completed many many more than one! (You know who you are, you over-achievers, you!)
For me though, there has been only one quilt project. I’ve found it very difficult to work consistently during this time, despite so much time available.
It started as a decision to tidy up my work room. I got as far as the first box of fabric that was out of place. When I looked at it, I saw many cut scraps that required sewing together immediately, before any tidying up could be done.

Underneath the larger pieces were many small rectangles and scraps left over from previous projects. Too big to discard, but not good for much. I sewed them together improv style.

A surrounding sash was needed. A red strip left over from another quilt suited well. It was about 12” wide, so four strips 3” each were cut.

Finally a border, using large sections. A fortunate discovery in the pile was 2m of block designs that mostly fitted. Only a few extra large rectangles were needed to surround the centre panel.

And now for the quilting . . .
I love your improv Meg.

Calling the centre panel “improv” rather glorifies it, as it was merely sewing rectangles together with very little thought. Though I was quite satisfied with the final product. After I put the wide border on, I discovered another little pile of small rectangles scraps – darn it!

Great looking quilt there. The red strip really gives it a zing
Sewing leftovers together improv style is my fav go to to relax after a big project I may never do anything with them but have a pile Just in case!
A lot of my sewing has been for grandchildren and future babies
