    Just finished 2 "tree of Life" quilts that I pieced entirely from scraps (was inspired by the scrap challenge posted). Am marking them for quilting right now but in the meantime these are some that are already finished

    this is my 1st one block wonder. I'll give it to my niece's baby boy on Friday

    these were blocks I won on an Ebay auction-put them together and quilted it

    this is my favorite scrap quilt to make. it's called best friends and designed by Trudi hughes. It used up your smallest pieces, I've made at least 4 of them

    I used a really ugly jungle print that I had gotten from somewhere and knew I would never use otherwise. Have since realized that I have quite a few ugly fabrics so will be making many one block wonders in the future.

    Beautiful quilts! I hope to do my first OBW soon, and I have a ton of scraps, so I might snag your idea ;-)

    Yoor quilts are so nice. Do you think you could win an "ugly fabric" contest? Isn't it wonderful how an ugly fabric can be turned into a beauty.
