Since receiving a box stuffed full of various fabrics from Jocelyn over at Happy Cottage Quilter back in 2022, I continue to incorporate her scraps where I can. The box she sent was stuffed to overflowing with small scraps, a few orphan blocks and a few larger backing-sized fabrics. I’ve featured two of her orphan pinwheel blocks in the center of this baby quilt and made two more of my own to complement her two. I then used other orphan blocks from past projects of mine, including some from, Onshore Breeze and Palahdee. I think that all these orphan blocks have joined together quite nicely into this “homecoming”.
I donated this to Baby2Baby, a nonprofit that provides children living in poverty across the country with diapers, clothing and all the basic necessities that every child deserves.

I love it when I can make random leftovers work together. You did great!
Thanks!
I love how your are incorporating the blocks and fabrics. Good job!
I am trying to work predominately with my scraps, orphan blocks and stash fabrics, and try to avoid buying new fabrics. I really like the look of scrappy quilts, so this suits me well! But, I find that I’m picky when it comes to having the backing fabric complement the top, so I have made a few trips to the fabric store this month 😉
