declared war on my scrap bag: resulting reversible QAYG quilt
6 Attachment(s)
Completely reversible king-size quilt; both sides are made totally from scraps.
I used Warm & Natural batting. It's a bit heavy as it's got so many (thousands, it seemed!) seam allowances enclosed :o so it's nice to be able to "change" the quilt by just turning it over. This one is "Buggy Wheels". I used white sashing and white binding on this side. [ATTACH=CONFIG]342953[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]342954[/ATTACH] I dubbed this [string quilt] side "Just the Scraps, Ma'am"! I used black sashing and black binding on this side. [ATTACH=CONFIG]342958[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]342957[/ATTACH] These two photos show the reverse of each side. [ATTACH=CONFIG]342962[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]342967[/ATTACH] |
WOW WOW, what a spectacular quilt, great use of scraps. What a great effort!
|
Love it "declared war on my scraps" I'd have to say that if you didn't win the war you certainly won this particular battle. You have two beautiful scrap quilts there. Awesome job. You should enter it in the fair or a show. It is a great reversable quilt.
|
Wow! i believe you won that war. Beautiful!
|
What a wonderful quilt!!! :thumbup::thumbup:
|
WOW from me too! What a great job, and both are beautiful as well. You have made those scraps into a treasure. It appears that you may have quilted each large square then joined with sashing???? That looks like a doable way to quilt a queen.
|
That is a jaw dropper, beautiful work!!!!!
|
Love them, scrappy quilts are so much fun and I think they always look fantastic. Great job! Peggy
|

That is just gorgeous, simply gorgeous. You did so well keeping your lights and darks to show up you block.
|
Wow from me too! Both sides are just beautiful and I love them but I have to say I REALLY love buggy wheels. Wonderful job using up those scraps.
|
Fantastic!!
|
Looks like Quilt as You Go? Did you use the sashing to join them?
|
Wow, Wow, Wow!!!! What a great job you did, and I can't imagine what your scrap "bucket" looked like before you started!!! You sure did win this war with them!!!
|
Awesome quilt or should I say quilts.
|
Wow!!!!!!!! I'm still fighting a war with my scraps......
|
WOW!!! That is awsome!!! Wonderful job.
|
Very nice!!! Tell me ... how did you get white binding on one side, and black on the other???
|
awesome job :thumbup::thumbup:
|
I love it! Different colors of binding too - great job!
|
You did a great job on this quilt. I absolutely love both sides. I love scrappies.
|
That is awesome quilt. I love all the colors, it is very inspiring to me.
|
This is one gorgeous quilt! I love that it is fully reversible and both sides are fantastic! this ought to last eons, worth its weight in gold. How did you do white binding on one side and black on the other? Did you make them separately and then sew them together? I guess you are free to fabric binge now that you have used all your scraps!
|
WOW....love it....love it.....love it. Both sides are equally as beautiful, I wouldn't know which side I would want to use first. Did you use up your scraps?
|
Very nice... excellent quilts
|
OMMG!! that many scraps. Both sizes of your quilt is beautiful.
|
Immaculate piecing! You must be very precise for the quilt lines to coincide with the designs on both sides!
