String Frenzy!

After saving scraps from 10 years of quilting, Christine Mahon created this bright, cheerful quilt. Based on a Bonnie Hunter pattern, the placement of foundation-pieced scraps on a yellow backdrop creates a secondary star pattern.

All The Quilts I've Made by Christine Mahon, quilted by Jessica Dickinson.  

This is a great scrap buster pattern.  Christine Mahon says there were lots of points and bias edges to work with, and she still has a mountain of scraps! This quilt was awarded a red ribbon (Second Place) in the Scrap-Duet category at the 2026 Quilt Arizona show.

This is the pattern shown on the cover of String Frenzy: Strips, Strings & Scrappy Things by Bonnie K. Hunter (available at Amazon).
