I wanted to use some of the 5 inch squares that I had in my scrappy stash box. When I make PJ's for the grandsons I will cut the leftover flannel into 5" squares & 2 1/2" strips. That way I have some fabric ready to go into a project when I get the "bug". I threw in a few cotton scraps as well in this project. I made half square units and put them into an Around the World layout. I used a strip of the half square units in the backing as well to lengthen the flannel to the right measurement. Easy, peasy.
The quilt ended up being about 68" x 81". Backed with a cozy flannel. Of course the name of the quilt came fairly quickly - PJ Maxx. A little play on words there.
May your new year bring you much peace, contentment, and joy. God Bless!
Amazing what a few 5 inch squares can do!
Used a strip of the half square triangles on the backing.
and of course, the label!
A matching pillow case from the remaining fabric.
