The idea behind this quilt was to use a plain piece of fabric and insert a strip of colour to add some interest.

One day I was at sewing and a friend was throwing out the end piece off her strata strip. The colours and fabrics were gorgeous and included come of her own hand dyes - it really was too good to pass by. I combined it with a piece of cream homespun that I had laying around and then searched for the ideal binding. So this is Trudy's scraps and Trudy was surprised.
