Little Stash Quilts


I'm making progress on the little quilts I'm making from my stash of deep red/maroon fabrics. These are going to be made into cushion covers for our bed, to match the summer quilt. I wanted to make 2 different designs because I think it suits the scrappy style. I'm not sure what borders the Birds in the Air one will get - that will be this weekend's project.

Make the feather"loops" fit the space that they have been given, so some are long and arty, others are short, some are narrow...just fill up the quilt space!
