I recently started a Kalaidoscope quilt using Ricky Tim's book. I'm enjoying seeing the design come together and process is easier than I anticipated, but I got distracted with the scraps.
Have you ever turned your quilt scraps into a project before you even got the original quilt off the design wall? What can I say? I needed a grocery sack ;-)

LOL, you read it as being a little odd and I read it as being a little ADD thus easily distracted... can you tell all 3 of my kids and now most of my grandkids have ADHD? I'm sure my older brother did, and myself to a milder degree. We have that gene cornered.

Both your projects are wonderful!! I got a kick out of your dilemma - I often get carried away with my "leftovers" too! Somehow it was less stressful to deal with than the prescribed pattern, and I enjoyed getting creative. Recently, I've been thinking about this, and letting myself get more creative with the quilts also- I like combining the structured and controlled with my wild side.
