As I’m going through my craft/sewing room looking for items that can spark my drive to do another project, I found a stash of scrap fabrics I’ve been planning to use for some time now. So I thought, it might be time for another scrappy quilt, and as usual I ran to the internet to browse some tutorials I could follow.

I stumbled upon this video tutorial by Teresa DownUnder on YouTube, it was perfect and just the right project idea I was looking for. It was made up of strips of random size which is amazing because you don’t need to measure and cut precisely every now and then.

How to Make Improv Quarter Log Cabin Quilt:
Step 1
Cut a square and a couple of strips in any size and width, then place the square in the center of your work surface, and place a strip at the top with their right sides facing. Stitch the strip with ¼ inch seam allowance, then press them open, and trim off the excess fabric.
Step 2
Repeat the same steps on one side of the square, then keep adding more strips, and press as you go. Trim the block to 12×12 inches or to your desired size, then continue to make more blocks, and put the blocks together. Finish your quilt however you want.
