We are on the last part of the Grand Canal Scrap quilt tutorials - the border. The only thing you need is for your mind to be flexible - you can make those scraps work! These pixs show different fabric but it is exactly how I make these scrap borders. Time to gather your scraps. I like the width of 2.5" since I have a ruler that size.
