Kids scrap quilt 2

In amongst the bag of scraps were all these polar fleece squares.
Too good to just through out.
The thinking cap is on and I have an idea..


I found this green flannelette in my stash. I think it's been there nearly 8 years. 
Time to use some up. I think the colour matches well.


I have left all the squares the size they were and just trim the edges straight.
I then added 2" strips randomly onto some sides. I built them up larger than I needed by using all the same strips. Once ironed I trimmed them all back to 8.5" and decided on this layout.


This is such a warm cuddly quilt. The polar fleece and flannelette work well together.


Now to choose a backing
