Inspired by all the lovely scrap quilts posted in Grammy Dwynn's topic, I threw all caution to the wind and let my scraps roam free!!
For the first time ever I have ignored the desire to colour coordinate and focused on colour value...I am hooked!!

SO guess I will have to get busy making quite a few more, so watch this space :-D
