Last Sunday I blogged about the project I started using scraps of fabric. It is a very different way to make a quilt. I have researched this Kawandi type of quilt and there are photos but not a lot of direction on how to make them. As I explained you hand stitch the scraps of fabric starting on the outside. I am figuring it out as I go. Some of my stitches are running stitch and some are back stitch and some are short and some are longer. That is the way I want it....and I am enjoying this process and it is so much fun!!!
