I am making this quilt out of cut up clothes. It also has many, many different types of fabric other than cotton. I love scrap quilts!

I just went to Quiltville.com for the first time, had never heard of it before. I think it is now one of my new favorite sites. She has some great scrap patterns and I am suddenly ready to start a mystery quilt, even though I have several other projects that really need to be finished first. Oh, so little time....

That is really nice. We all have a ton of scraps!!! Did you find the pattern on line?

I've seen a lot of scrap quilts with no matching colors, and they are very nice, the kind you want to wrap up in.

I love scrap quilts but had a hard time making them . If I had a pattern I ended up trying to match things. Well I just finished a scrap quilt that I personally love. After I finished cutting all my scraps into 2 1/2 inch strips and 5 inch squares and 2 1/2 in squares I took all the leftovers and made this quilt. my only 2 rules were not putting the same fabric right next to each other and I wasn't allowed to change the fabric I was grabbing out of the basket otherwise. If that makes sense.

Oh, that's great! The neat thing about scrap quilts is that there will never, ever be another one like it!

Really cute! I just love color. That is why I love scrap quilts. You can just use your imagination. And there are no "rules"

I have been doing a few scrap quilt blocks, I'm enjoying using bright fabrics and white.
