Cameo Scrap Goodness

I feel like it's been awhile since I've been able to show you a post about what I'm working on.  I finished up my latest quilt made with Amy Butler's Cameo collection.  I can't wait to show it to you, but it still has to remain a secret for awhile.  I can however, show you what I've done with the scraps from that quilt-


I took all of the leftover bits and turned them into a little baby quilt that will finish up at 36x36.  I used the improv piecing tutorial that I shared HERE to make it, and I just can't help but smile every time I look at it!

I've been on kind of an Amy Butler kick lately with this quilt, my secret quilt, and Bohemian Charm all in the last month.  And you know what- I've been loving every second of it.  I think these super-saturated colors are just what this dreary winter needs to get me in the mood for spring! 

This is the smallest quilt I've ever made.  I'm thinking I might actually try to finish it up tonight or tomorrow night, and then it will join Stepping Stones in the pile to donate!

    I love small quilts like this one! So fun to do and so much easier to handle. These fabrics look great for a baby quilt, so fun and bright.
