Ever since I have seen a map of the United States on Pinterest http://seekatesew.com/scrap-map-tutorial/, I have wanted to make one. What a fun way to use scraps and make an interesting wall quilt...
A week ago, I was at My Girlfriend's Quilt Shoppe up in the Attic sewing with friends and I started working on this project...I actually was working on two at the same time as one map was for a friend...
I used the spray starch method from Natalia Bonner's blog, Piece N Quilt to prep my states and then used an Elmer's Glue Stick to hold them in place...
For my template for the states, I simply traced them onto freezer paper and ironed them onto the prepared starched scraps...Great project and now to share at the quilt guild in January because I have been asked to show a Pinterest inspired quilt project...What a fun project!!!
