Scappy Mountains is a Top

I had a talk with myself about my avoidance sewing. I agreed I couldn’t sew anything else until I sewed the Scrappy Mountain Majesty rows together, lol. And sew I did…..it’s finished and I’m linking up with Alycia’s Finished (or not) Friday. In the end, I made it square at 61” x 61”.

I also spent a bit of time looking for a backing for it. What do you think of this Jane Sassaman from Jane’s Magic Forest? Too dark? I love the big fern fronds.


And, I leader/endeared a couple friendship stars bringing my count of dark ones to 12 out of 52. Goodness, King sized quilts take A LOT of blocks, even when they are 12”!

Have you gotten your Harriet Powers postage stamps?!?! I bought mine yesterday 😄.



Happy Friday, Cherie

  1. Mountain Majesty is truly majestic, Cherie. I think the Jane Sassaman fabric is great for it. Friendship Star blocks are perfect for a leader ender project. Hope you have a great weekend!

  4. I have things I avoid in quilting, too - sewing long rows together is a good example. So - way to go getting your Scrappy Mountains together! It's beautiful!

  5. Oh but your mountains are shining like the sun setting on them, so beautiful!! That looks like a great backing fabric for it.

  8. Who doesn't love leaf peeping for fall foliage? That's exactly where my mind went when I saw this quilt top. LOVE it, Cherie, and the Jane fabric will look great on the back!
