I fell behind due to having to quilt several baby quilts for my craftbooth for the show in 2 weeks...I hope to catch up but can't promise I can before the next ride...I will still do it; always up for using scraps! I still haven't been able to work on #7 anymore, but will work on it & my granddaughter's 2 quilts (#3 mysterytrain & a UFO she never got done) for her graduation in June. Can't work on any of the 3 in May, cuz I will be out of state! So, March & April will be busy; also still working on another mystery & a BOM...You all know where I can be found...the sewing room round the clock!!! I love the finishes; going to steal a couple of the ideas from them for the finish on #8. Just gotta see what I have to work with...

All these great looking quilts and variations....still can't decide what to use for sashing, scrappy or consistent, I like both, but definitely yellow stars for mine.

What I like about this scrappy is that a person can make many versions of it, and they will all be beautiful. Endless possibilities.

All the quilts are just lovely! This mystery ride has been so enjoyable!! Thank you so much , Judy!!!

Okay, I got my yellow/black/pink/green top finished, and will try to get a photo as soon as the sun comes up.

I'm thinking my blue/cream/red top will look better without the sashing between the blocks since it has a lot of movement, and the sashing would break that up. Maybe I can put some stars around the exterior instead. Hmmm.

I love all the versions that are posting!!! Scrappy or consistent or one-color sashing, light stars, dark stars....all wonderful!! When I have been working on these blocks, my focus has been on the center four-patch, yet when all put together with sashing and stars, my focus is on the stars and the surrounding large tri/s. So fun to look at!

I'm still deciding on sashing fabrics and star colors. A little behind, due to child care and Super Bowl over the weekend. No worries, though, cause hubby is out all day tomorrow and I am heading to the sewing room for the day. Hooray!

To catch up on some comments, I would love to do another scrappy. Maybe I will be able to be much scrappier than the ones I am making. So more practice will be welcome.

And re: using fabric that I love in my stash: I look at my fabrics as ingredients in my pantry. They are there, on hand, to make wonderful creations. For me, better to use what is on hand, for a project underway, than a "someday"project that may never materialize. That way I get to enjoy the fabrics in a finished project, rather than folded up on a shelf. JMHO. Sew On!

I need many scrappies to use a part of my scraps. I have a huge laundry basket over loaded with small scraps,plus a long plastic bin with larger scraps. That is just scraps not to mentsion yardage. My sewing room resembles a fabric shop.!!!

Wow, glad my ingredients... er...fabrics do not have an expiration date. This is something to really think about, I am not much for saving dark chocolate for a special recipe, and as youngster once told me "bet the cloth is happier in a quilt than squashed in a box". So.... I vow to make as much stash as happy as I can!

I had not thought that far ahead to the binding. Great idea. Thanks for posting. I would like to try your idea.
