    Oh...you have given me SUCH a great inspiration of HOW to use the small piece of quilted piece I have....

    THANK YOU !!!! Didn't look to see WHEN this picture was posted...but since I'm new to this site, I have just begun looking at the "RECENT TOPICS" !!!! WONDERFUL !!!!

    BUT...don't know about one inch squares...may go larger than that. My quilt on the Toile and Irish Chain, the squares were 2 1/2 inches cut.

    Thank you, again, for the inspiration !!!

    To all: Thank you! Scraps are wonderful, aren't they? I've collected bits of fabric wherever I've lived, wherever I've wandered. It's like piecing a bit of life itself! For those of you who love scrappy-look, the applique wreath in the center came from Judy Martin's "Scrap Quilts" (1985). That part is 20" square. The rest all exploded from there! I wanted to give the book credit when I sent in the photo...I was just so darn excited to get the attachment to work, I forgot :lol: !!!
