A Scrappy Life

Block height has been verified in A Scrappy Life; the pattern is correct and works out mathematically.  If the height of your strip sets is larger than what is stated in the pattern, your seam allowance is a tad bit too small.  If the height of your strip sets is smaller than what is stated in the pattern, your seam allowance is a tad bit too big.  Seam allowance is even more crucial when there are so many seams within a strip set; even being off a little bit can make a 1/2" difference.

April 14, 2018:  Page 7, General Instructions should read: "Block A is entirely strip pieced, and Blocks B, C, D, and E are ..."  {this error has been corrected in the July 2018 revision.}

If purchased before 04/28/2020, Fabric Requirements:  Throw size change the 7 FQs for Light and Dark fabrics to 8.

If purchased PDF before 1/30/2020, Page 1 Cutting Instructions.

Replace this line: "IF USING 2-1/2” STRIPS (skip if using FQs or 2-1/2" strips):" 

with "IF USING 2-1/2” STRIPS (skip if using FQs or 1/4-yard cuts):"

Home Awaits

If you question that the background strip for the pieced block is cut incorrectly in the instructions, please check your seam allowance.  With a seam allowance even slightly over 1/4", the 4 seams (each with 2 pieces of fabric) would easily make the block too narrow.  Many 1/4" presser feet are not accurate, so test yours out with some test strip sets.  There is not an error in the pattern regarding the background piece width; it all works out mathematically with an exact 1/4" seam allowance.

Clarification:  The B strips in Strip Set U are random.

If purchased before 10/15/2019.  Page 7, please update the paragraph at the top of the page with the following:

"Trim quilt center if necessary, 1/4” outside the points where the Setting Triangles meet the Chain Blocks. 

Press all border seams away from the quilt center.  Join Inner Border strips end to end with straight seams.  Then join Outer Border strips end to end with straight seams.  Measure the quilt vertically through the center and piece two side Inner Border strips to fit.  Attach side Inner Borders.  Measure quilt horizontally through the center and piece two top/bottom Inner Borders to fit.  Attach top and bottom Inner Borders.  Measure quilt vertically through the center and piece two side Outer Border strips to fit.  Attach side Outer Borders.  Measure quilt horizontally through the center and piece two top/bottom Outer Border strips to fit.  Attach top and bottom Outer Borders."
