These are paper-pieced string blocks for what will be a vintagey-looking Kaleidoscope quilt. In a spirit of stashbusting, because I have a lot of sad, neglected stash from back when I started buying quilting fabrics which isn't... quite... to my current tastes.
As ever with stash quilts, I ended up supplementing things with a few small new purchases - but they were vintage! A bag of real actual vintage scraps for £5! Several of them shriveled alarmingly under my iron and revealed themselves to be not actually cotton, but all the rest I used. Gosh, I'm so thrifty! And not a sucker at all.
