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 ;-)

Being a little add, often have been detoured from one plan to another. Love your bag.

I read that as "being a little odd" ;-)

now that really looks like a kalaidoscope! and I love home made shopping bags, I always get nice comments on mine.

Ah, yes, if I were trying to do that pattern, it would have definitely ended up as a tote bag!jmho

DebraK

That's why I need new bags. I keep giving them away to admirers.

DebraK

lol, the quilt is still on the wall. Thanks for being honest ;-)

No I haven't yet Debra but you are going to have the most beautiful grocery bag I have ever seen. The grocery clerks will remember your bag. The clerks at the store I shop recognize me by my grocery bags which I put before my groceries. Makes fun conversation.

Great bag, and it's going to be a great quilt. No one says you've got to finish a quilt before you use the leftovers. It makes a great deal of sense to me.
