Another version of This little piggy

Another fun scrap project I’ve been working on is “This little piggy”

My pattern uses the 8″ QUBE set but I figured I’d use the 6″ set and then all scraps and again my print print bin is always overflowing and then I picked the other colors too because they were overflowing or pretty full bins as well, I think the light green and dark blue were, light brown maybe not so much but then I also calculate how much yardage I need for the border and if I have one of those colors in my short yardage pile then it tells me what spot to use it in the quilt, like here I had a bit of the light green so that went as the inner border so I couldn’t use the light green as the background color, the outer border is a orange sort of tan color and I had plenty of it for binding as well, it’s a fun way to plan and then again be surprised by the end result.

The quilt ended up measuring 45″ x 53″

here you can compare it to the pattern

a lot of the white print fabrics were sort of directional so I tried to have them all face the right way or even the light green turtle and hedgehogs!

I used this green print for the backing

As with most of my Accuquilt friendly patterns, you can take the pattern and easily up- or down-size the qube set and get a bigger or smaller quilt!

In this pattern it uses the 8″ QUBE set to make 10″ blocks, since I used the 6″ QUBE set, the blocks ended up 7.5″ Finished.

  2. This scrap quilt was thought out very well. The finished quilt looks great! You did a fabulous job at putting it all together and interpreting the original pattern to fit your scraps. Happy stitching! -Andrea
