Rags to Riches Scrappy Strips

This coverlet is foundation-pieced on muslin using leftover pieces from my scrapbag. Originally, I thought I'd make a rug, but changed my mind mid-project and asked friends and family for suggestions about how to proceed. Donalee, a friend and fellow quilter, recommended adding enough to make it into a usable quilt. So, as she suggested, I enlarged it, used no batting since I backed it with flannel, tied it, and gave it to Donalee who gave me such good directions! It measures 62" X 77," and while it does not look squared up in this photo, it's just "blowin' in the wind."
