The Picnic Plaid Quilt in Forget Me Not + Preorder a Quilt Kit! from Busy Hands Quilts

The Picnic Plaid quilt pattern is now in the shop! This quilt pattern is a twist on the traditional Granny's Square block; it's unique in that it's completely strip pieced with very few bias edges to work with. That's a win! Plus, every other block is an outline of the Granny's Square block which lends to the plaid-look of the design.

This design works with so many fabric styles from farmhouse to modern. I'm loving the farmhouse look of the fabrics in this quilt.

Blue Yellow Strip Pieced Quilt from From My Carolina Home

I started this quilt on retreat last October with my local guild, and just now got back to it. I had to put it aside for all the holiday activities and Christmas sewing I had to do. So, this week, I was able to find a bit of time to make progress. As is sometimes the case, a step forward sometimes means taking a step back. The blue and yellow fabrics are leftovers from a strip pack that I used in my Blue and Yellow To The Nines quilt.

I sewed the strips into a tube. Press every other fabric ...
