Slaphappy
- Let’s Break Out –
This fun and wacky quilt was designed to
clean out my studio. I was attempting to shrink my Christmas novelty stash.
Since then I've made the quilt in red, white, and blue, down and dirty, brights,
etc. You name it - it will look
great in this quilt! This is an absolutely no stress, no headache foundation
pieced quilt in three sizes. You can use new yardage or scraps - you just slap
and go (and count) and you'll have a fabulous quilt.
