This video was actually made a couple weeks ago. Sorry for it's delay. This is a simple 4 Patch manipulating fabric color placement to give this a chained look. You could use any combination of colors. You could really scrap this up and use every color in the rainbow to move those scraps out of your stash.
Don't forget to follow me on social media myquiltprojects.wordpress.com
You can also find me on instagram / myquiltprojectsig
Cutting dimensions for the squares in the 4 patch are 2 inches
The large neutral square is 3 1/2 inches
You could make this out of larger scraps by using 2 1/2 inch squares in the 4 patch with a 4 1/2 neutral square in the block.

Thanks for this scrap quilt block, and the barn raising layout makes my heart sing!

LOVE this! I sew 2 1/2" squares as leaders and enders. I alway sew one light/low volume to one that has a stronger color/pattern, so these could become half of the four patch with the light square in the lower left side. Thanks for sharing this idea!

You are very welcome! The whole time as I made this, I kept thinking, this would be a great leader/ender project! Enjoy using those scraps!

Hello ! LOL your kitty 🤗 I should get some shoe boxes . the more I sew the more scraps I get. Even when I'm sewing scraps 🤨 this is a fantastic idea , it looks very easy . I need to use more quieter colors than I do . I still need one of those slotted ruler things. It'll keep waiting a bit but one day 😉 Have a great week ! & thank you for simplifying things!

💜I'm adding this one to my list of scrap projects. I always forget about the leaders and enders tip. That would make this easy peasy. Thanks! 💜

OMG I just had a :Duh" moment. I too have that ruler and I love it, but somehow it never occurred to me to use it to cut scraps as you showed. I am a new quilter though and have made two complete quilts and have two more quilt tops finished. This is great and I can't wait to use it to cut up my leftovers! I am a scrappy quilter to start with doing my own thing with fabrics I have fallen in love with and this is going to be so helpful. Your quilt design is a delight. Thanks for sharing! Cheers from Minnesota

It certainly is a scrap buster. In the video I hesitate, but think this would be gorgeous in just two colors. Neutral plus scraps of a specific color. The 4 patches could be half neutral and half color which would add a skinny and chunky chain. Thanks for watching!
