    thanks for all the wonderful comments... I made this without a pattern.. I had the idea, or maybe I saw a pic of the design and made it up as I went along.. Lots of oopsies but i dont care, this one is mine....

    Im a leader and ender sewer so I always have a box of sqs next to my machine at all times.... I try to tame the scraps but as we all know they multiply at night... And im good with that as I have soooo many tops i wanna make...

    Im off to use the four patches ( made with leaders and enders) in another scrappy !!!!

    OK I know that I am getting old (today is or was my birthday, the 16th) and my eyes are getting tired but I don't see any wonky or ugly. All I see is a very, very pretty quilt. I was going to say you kept the best for yourself, but I have a feeling that there are many more beautiful quilts in your future. Quilts like yours are making me want to do my own scrappy. Thanks for sharing. BrendaK

On this top I used 2x2 sqs, cut with my GO- super fast and simple.. However, It was a major pain toward the ends as my ON POINT HST were cut on the bias and silly me stretched them as I was handling them.. I refused the date with 'Jack' so i just allowed the puckers to happen, so its a wonky one, but thats OK, this one is mine..
