Wow
Completely reversible king-size quilt; both sides are made totally from scraps.
I used Warm & Natural batting. It's a bit heavy as it's got so many (thousands,
it seemed!) seam allowances enclosed
so it's nice to be able to "change" the quilt
by just turning it over.
This one is "Buggy Wheels". I used white sashing and white binding on this side.

I dubbed this [string quilt] side "Just the Scraps, Ma'am"! I used black sashing
and black binding on this side.

These two photos show the reverse of each side.

That quilt is amazing!! I can hardly believe you pieced both sides!!! To me that looks like a lifetime of work just on one quilt. Spectacular is how I'd describe both sides. I seem to find I am partial to scrappy quilts.
