    Default What is your favorite pattern when using scraps?
    This year I want to use up some of my scraps. I'm interested in knowing what is your go to pattern using scraps or a scrappy quilt on your bucket list. Thanks for your ideas.

    Log cabin is a good one that I like, or a string quilt. Four patch, or nine patch are also ones I've made scrappy.

    I am in agreement ... Log cabin is by far my favorite for scraps.

    I love making string quilts--low stress, great results.

    I make a bunch of half square triangles (one side darker than the other or a single light with scrappy darks) and then play with them. There are soooo many patterns for HST that I can play -- Carpenters Star, stars in general, ribbon borders or ribbon stripes,.....

    Irregular and small cuts make great crumb blocks.

    I'm making a quilt with my scraps using the pattern where nine patches form interlocking rings. I think it's called "Jack's Chain".
