APQ and QUILTSY TEAM UFO Challenge March Finish

APQ & QUILTSY Team's UFO Challenge for March 2020 is #7,

....and mine is FINISHED!

Twin Quilt, measuring 70 x 91 inches / 177 x 231 cm

It was an easy finish, so to say; the top was already done and I had the backing fabric and batting. I finished it the first week this month, but didn't get around to take photos until a couple of days ago. Lots of rain and gloomy days lately, not the best weather for photographing.

I love scrappy quilts more and more. I had so much fun rediscovering 'old' fabric, some from when I started quilting 15 years ago. (Gasp! Is it really that long ago?!) 

It's a fun 'I spy' (Eye Spy) quilt, where kids can look for objects that are difficult to spot from a distance. Do you see the cats? The Eiffel Tower? The baubles? Sliced bananas? 

If you are a scrap quilter, don't you just love all those different fabrics that has a history? 

When I saw this fabric, I knew I had to buy it for this quilt! It fits so very well a log cabin quilt! I love it! The disadvantage is it is not a wide backing, which I prefer. (Wide backings make my life easier!) I had to add two lengths together. I have machine sewn the binding to the back, to avoid putting stress to my not so good elbow. 

This is what is left of the backing fabric; some 2", 2.5" squares and some 1.5" strips. Already cut and stored in boxes for a future scrappy quilt. :)
