This quilt is a Laundry Basket Quilts pattern in Edyta Sitar's Scrappy Fireworks Quilts book. It was inspired by both Edyta Sitar and Bonnie K Hunter. I love their beautiful and inspirational use of scraps. True to her word, as Bonnie K Hunter would say, "if the fabric is still ugly when you cut it, you just haven't cut it small enough!" Each finished block measures 4-1/2" square. With 1/2" finished strips in the blocks, one can imagine how many ugly (and pretty) scraps I was able to use. This was such a fun quilt to work on! I've named it "A Dickens of a Quilt," not because of the small piecing but because I was listening to Dickens' Great Expectations audiobook while working on it.
