    Isn't it amazing what we can do with "leftovers"! This is too cute!

    oh I really like that. I tried to make a scrap quilt sort of like that and lost my patience with it. I just couldn't do it. I'll have to try again

    This is terrific!! A great way to not only use up scraps but those "orphan" blocks too... you've inspired me!

    I like this quilt - it isn't the same all over, it's one with adventure! I think it's wonderful you kept all those scraps - nice colors, easy on the eyes!

    Now that is NEAT! I am not a big fan of scrap quilts but I love this. I think the regular blocks give the eye a place to rest and keep it from being too busy. The choice of fabric works too. Well Done.

    very cute. I have been working on my scraps for the past 3 weeks. Made one french braid quilt, wall hangings, and am now working on a nine patch. Lots of fun using them up but my hand hurts from cuttine out 700 2and 1/2 inch squares. Oh well. As a good quilter friend of mine keeps saying, your scraps cost just as much per yard as your bigger pieces. trying to challenge myself to use them all up before I start another project. Like your ideas.

    Love what you did with your scraps. I just can't make myself throw them away either. Beautiful quilt.
