Hurry, this pattern is free at Craftsy, but only until the end of April (Thur).   There are so many  ways you can use the basic design.    Piano Keys by Connie Kresin is simply 2.5″ pieces cut to different lengths and sewn together.  In fact, if you purchase a jelly roll, there is very little cutting.  There are many free patterns at Craftsy.  If you haven’t been there yet, you are missing out.

I decided to go through a few of my scraps  and I made this blue runner.  It was easy and fun.  I haven’t decided on an applique yet.    It would be fun to have these themed for different holidays.  Maybe I should be doing one for July 4rh.   I know I’d like one for Valentines day.   It’s time to look through a few more of those scraps that moved from the cutting table to the longarm machine.   Oh, yes, and then I could quilt the quilt on the machine.
