I had 4 blocks from the CW quilt blog that I cut the wrong size. I was thinking wallhanging but today as I was dusting the dresser I decided this was where they were going. I think I will like it! Now to back and finish it!

Very nice, good use for a "mistake". I have heard of quilted table covers and now this scarf, but do you still put a middle layer in, seems it would be very thick/heavy. I noticed you only said you were going to back it, did that mean no batting in it?

I am going to use a thin piece of poly batting in it. The dresser belonged to my Grandfather when he and my Grandmother first married so protecting it is important.

Very nice. I made a table runner for my sister-in-law and she put it on her dresser. What a great idea I thought, so, I made one for my entertainment center. Looking good.
