Here is a small quilt top I finished last week. It is entirely made of feedsack squares, 3 inches (finishing at 2.5 inches). I sewed the squares into random nine patches, and thought about setting them with alternate white squares. It would have made a good-sized throw. But no, I decided to set them together like this:
Some of those feedsacks are ugly, some are pretty, but it all comes together. All old fabric, even the border. I'll have fun quilting this square top later - other projects are calling me.

Beautiful. This makes me think of my grandmothers quilt that I used at my fathers house. So heavy and warm. Alternating white patches would not have done this quilt justice.
Ugly fabric comes to life when mixed with others. Nice, nice quilt!
such a great quilt!
thanks so much for linking up!
