Making Wonky Triangles with Scraps and Crumbs

This very simple block makes my heart SO happy. I hope you love it too. Maybe you can give it a try and see. It's a great way to dip your toes into improvisational quilting.

    I love this idea so much. It’s both a scrap quilt and not. I imagine myself cutting all of the blocks needed to make a quilt from solid varieties of one color and then just adding any scraps along the way. Leaders. A couple thrown in at the beginning or end of a sewing session until I have used all of the solid blocks. Oh I love this idea. Thank you for sharing.
