    Amazing quilt!!! I have been starting to really enjoy scrap quilts. My kids (adults) just told me those are their favorites. I have yet to make then a scrappy....next time that is what they will get. My boys get the first quilts I have ever made....I have come a long ways since then. I will have to make then another soon. loving your idea...reversible!

    I would have a hard time deciding which side to show! Both are gorgeous!! Did you use quilt as you go method or finish both sides, then quilt? I love it.

    this is one of the nicest scrappy quilt I've seen.
    Lots of piecing and doing.
    Thanks for sharing....

    OK! I was so inspired yesterday that I decided to start one for myself. I spent the entire day, starching and cutting my scraps. Any great tips you would like to share on making the process easier? This is so darn much fun.

    On the string quilt side, did you piece it to a foundation piece? You have much larger squares without the binding running thru them. I love the looks of that. I am contemplating using a flannel instead of batting since there are so many seams. It might lighten it up a bit, and with that I am guessing I could just use that as my foundation.
