PROJECTS & IDEAS | THROWS & WALL

Free-Style Piecing Wall Hanging

For this quilt, break some rules by cutting odd angles and quirky centers. Use novelty prints and fussy-cut the desired motif for about half of the block centers. Add variety by using one of the novelty prints for the outer border, but in a different colorway.
