I needed something to use as leaders and enders while sewing the latest Quilt of Valor blocks and other on-going projects, and found the perfect thing this week. Bricks!
I kept seeing Brick quilts online recently and this is a really easy scrap buster. Plus they are fast and easy to make.
They are especially easy to make when I already had a zip lock bag full of the bricks cut already. I had a different plan for these originally, but this will be quicker and easier. So far I just had to cut some of the white strips for the sides from the scraps and that was fast too. I have lots of white scraps because that is my Go To background for scrappy quilts.
The bricks themselves were already cut 3.5 by 6.5 inches, so the side strips are 2 by 6.5. So now as I work on the last 6 of the Home Sweet Home blocks for the QOV, I can run these through in between.
Fun! The blocks are definitely “potato chip” sewing - you can’t stop at just one!
