The STUNNING Shift quilt is made with leftover 2 1/2" strips or a Jelly Roll and background fabric!

Welcome to the 23rd video in our series of scrappy projects using 2 1/2" strips or Jelly Rolls! Stay to the end to see the finished quilt and an update on the strip bucket. When I first saw this quilt, I pictured multicolored leaves falling from the trees in the fall, littering the sky as they twirl through the air.

This month’s quilt is a free pattern from the Moda website called "Shift." The pattern is by Chrissy Lux of Branch & Blume. Here is a link to the pattern:

I’ve challenged myself to create a new project each month using only 2 1/2" strips from my scrap buckets. I've been saving leftovers from years of quilting—and now it’s time to tame that scrap stash! Even if I run out of scraps (unlikely!), I’ll switch to Jelly Rolls and keep the inspiration coming.

Don’t have a scrap bucket yet? No problem! Cut 2 1/2" strips from your stash—or pick up a Jelly Roll at your local quilt shop. Need help choosing fabric? Ask your local quilt shop owner—they’re always happy to help.
