Mini Plaid-ish Quilt Inspiration: Scrap, Rainbow, and Rainbow Scrap Quilts
If you’re planning to make a Mini Plaid-ish Quilt and are considering going in a scrappy or rainbow direction, I’ve got plenty of inspiration for you! Over the years I’ve made several versions of this pattern, and today I’m sharing three of my favorites: a scrap quilt, a rainbow quilt, and a rainbow scrap quilt.
The newly updated Mini Plaid-ish Quilt Pattern now includes fat quarter–friendly instructions in addition to guidance for making a scrappy version in every size. You’ll also find directions to make a rainbow version in the small lap size in a free download that comes with the pattern, so you’ve got lots of flexibility no matter what fabrics you’re working with.
Why I Love Scrap and Rainbow Quilts
While I enjoy sewing with curated fabric collections, my quilting journey really started with scrap quilts and especially with rainbow scrap quilts. There’s just something magical about pulling from your stash, mixing colors and values, and watching the quilt come together with so much personality.
Three Versions of the Mini Plaid-ish Quilt
