I had some scraps leftover from the Fancy Forest Quilt and thought I would use them up making a second version of Margaret's bag. It;s a bit of a mish mash - I should have liked to include more of the blue solid in the crazy piecing but as it was I used every last scrap.
I also applied facing to a Linus quilt but left it in stages of completion to illustrate the method to to the U3A Monday week.

| Folded strip attached with quarter inch seam to right side of quilt, raw edges together |
 |
| Flipped over and pressed |
 |
| Secured with a one eighth inch away from edge line of stitching through all layers of seam allowance |
 |
| Folded edge pressed to the wrong side |
 |
| Sewed facing with a serpentine stitch through all layers. On a different quilt I should do this by hand. |

Your blocks look like they are related to the ones I just used. I like that handy decorative bag too.
