Lucky for me my favorite local quilt shop ordered the line in. I saw this quilt at Market in Tula’s Booth… SO that is where I began. The quilt pattern is called Victory Garden by Busy Bee Designs. Tula made other adaptions to the pattern to make it look true to the Union Jack flag. I stuck to the pattern as closely as I could, although there are a couple minor changes:

1: I decided instead of picking just 15 prints like the pattern calls for, I collected 15 “main prints” 15 “solids” and 15 “small prints” I liked having the variety, and loved being able to use every single Elizabeth print in my quilt. I matched one of each of the 3 sets for each of the Union Jack blocks.

I am SO happy with how my quilt turned out, I LOVE LOVE IT.

I had heard mixed reviews of the pattern, so I wanted to see for myself the results. The one complaint I had heard about the quilt pattern was that there was a lot of scrap fabric left over. I became determined to figure out how to use up all my scraps so that I could show people what to do with the extra.

I also made this fun table topper as well. It was fun to be creative and figure out the uses of the extra pieces. I still have a few more scraps that I am playing with to see what other fun creative projects I can come up with!

This quickly became the quilt that keeps on giving! The challenge to use up all the leftover scraps was a fun one! I hope you have enjoyed checking them out and are inspired to keep creating with this wonderful fabric!
