    Beautiful! Scrappy quilts are my favourites....they are truly in the spirit of early quilting.

    You did a wonderful job. Hope it gives her more confidence to use her scraps. I use orphan blocks on the backs of my quilts. They have lots of crazy designs. No one ever sees that side much anyhow and a good use for large chunks of unwanted fabric.

    I hope your SIL learns from your example how wonderful a scrappy quilt can be. And I agree with the others - please show the back too!
