About a month ago, I sorted, ironed and folded all of my scrap fabric. Along the way, I cut out 5x5 squares to make this quilt. The border is 3" wide when cut and 2.5" after sewing.
This fabric has been staring me in the face for the past three week and I finally got around to making the quilt top last night. I've been admiring these patchwork charm square quilts forever, so I'm glad that I got to jump on the bandwagon!
I love this quilt--the more and more I see quilts I am learning that I love simple quilts with beautiful fabric-just like yours!

So Lovely! You mentioned your squares are 5x5. What is the width of your border?

Oh Oh Oh! This is going on my project list. A perfect way to use up scraps.
Your colors are so beautiful and bright, I can't wait to see the finished quilt.
What kind of fabric did you use for the border?
