    Default Pieces from the Past
    Just completed my Tumbler quilt. It took 783 tumbler pieces which were all from scraps from quilts I have made the last ten or so years, so I did use up smaller pieces of fabric. It was kind of a trip from the past as each piece I remember which quilt it came from and what I then did with the quilt. Not a difficult quilt but a fun one to do. Sorry about the double pix.

    Great quilt using all the pieces from other quilts. Now you are wrapped in a big quilt hug too!

    Looks good, I like using scraps just for that purpose..remembering the quilts made in the past.

    Your quilt is so pretty. Did you hand sew the tumbles by hand? The only one I've seen in person was hand pieced. Again you sure did a great job.
