3803 – Louisville Spirit

Scrappy string-piecing is the way to go when you need 3 college quilts! Angela’s scrap quilt plays with the school colors of her son’s university—the black, red, and gold of the University of Louisville. By combining fusible batting as a foundation for string piecing with an easy-going approach to scraps, you can have a fun, cherish-able quilt in no time!
