I am still on a mission to finish UFOs and pulled a kit of fabric. In 2017 I tested the Kenny the Koala pattern for Ruth Bourke of Crafty Corner Designs. You can find the pattern here. Most of the fabrics I used then were still together. There was enough for another koala with a few pieces were already cut. It did not take long to piece Kenny the Koala #2. The original pattern is 36” square; however, I added the bottom rows of 3” finished squares so he is now 36” by 48”. I will add borders.
I spent Saturday and Sunday afternoon cutting up scraps. I pulled my 2 1/2” scrap strips that were less than 16” long and cut them into bricks and squares. Then I cut other scrap fabrics into 2 1/2” HSTs with my Accuquilt cutter. I cut 444. It felt good to make a dent in the scrap stash.
