Winter's Back - Time for a new Scarf

Well, it looks like the return of winter. I bought a new jacket the other day (on sale, of course) and I needed a scarf but did not want to knit one. I decided a quilted scarf could be fun. I picked out two fabrics that matched, that new rock candy is cool and a Christmas fabric. I cut two backing pieces 5 1/2" wide by width of fabric, seamed them together to make a piece 5 1/2 x 40". Then I cut a batting piece the same size. I used alternate strips of 2 1/2" and did a stitch and flip design--a quilt as you go. When it was done, I trimmed up the sides and put on a binding. I think it came out great, and this morning I wore it out in the snow. It really is warm and looks different from anything you can buy. Try it with scraps, or a crazy quilt design! Have some fun. Hope to see you at the shop soon.Carol
