    Default postage stamp type quilt.

    took this top off the wall today so I could move on to other things. may add borders, but that will have to wait until I add frame extension. Squares finish at 1.5", about 2600 hundred pieces at this point. I want to thank a member here for the star idea ;-)

    What a great way to use up scraps - did it make you crazy? It is very colorful

    a little bit towards the end ;-) I really had to push myself not to give up until it got to a decent size.

    I love it - never saw a postage stamp quilt with stars. I think that makes it special. Looks like a lot of work!

    Beautiful! How will you quilt it? Please post a picture of the quilting when done. Scrap quilts are the best!
