    Control issues???? Oh, surely you jest! Not our little gaigai ... she is so easy going ... oh, wait! that was someone else. Once you get used to the fact that you have control issues, scrappy gets more doable ....
    "Crazy for Scraps" by Sally Schneider ... talks about scrap quilts ... there are the kind that drive a lot of us crazy (pay no attention to color, just put it all together)
    then there is the scrappy quilt where each block has colors in it that make good color sense, or compliment or contrast with each other, then all are put together to make a whole quilt ... similar to danmar's carpenter wheel
    and the third type of scrappy quilts are created with a color menu ... where a certain color goes in a particular place in the block

    For those of us with "control issues" ... the above definitions of scrap quilts seem to be right up our alley! LOL
    You're okay, gaigai ... control issues or not ;-) <wave>

    That looks fantastic!---

    (word to the wise---put it aside for a week or so and work on another project---you'll come back to it with renewed enthusiasm........it works for me! lol)


    I wouldn't put a border on it either---just celebrate the scrappy look!

    If this board doesn't give you motivation, nothing will.
    After reading all 9 pgs. Now I can't wait to see it. By the way;I like the black stips. Petal to the metal. I'm getting goose bumps waiting to see it.:}

    I didn't do anything yesterday. I took the "baby" back to the dr. Her sinus infection is not getting better. So I am playing "poor Boo Boo" mommy right now.
