That's going to be a cool quilt, unique! Please post more as it grows.

You get an A++ for this quilt.. It's going to finish up really pretty.

I love that scrappy idea.

This is working out lovely Great pattern for scraps Thanks for the tute Can`t wait to see more Gale

So true, that is the impression I got after looking at it lol. I had to tear some more fabrics for more light blocks. I did a bunch of those yesterday. Today I am going to work on the dark blocks some and hopefully I will get to sew a couple rows to show that part of the Tut.

I went looking for more ideas for scraps and string quilts yesterday, I found a great one and will make a new thread when I start that one. In the meantime I found lots of scrap quilts named Chevrons and Zigzag etc and they are on the same order as this one, only instead of having four or five strips in a block, they consisted of only one strip cut on the 60 d angle and they looked lovely too...they had dimension even though they weren't too careful of value, just lots of color.....just check out Pinterest and do a search.

Oh go look at this "Settlers Trail" in this thread.

I usually get a bit distracted when doing a lot of blocks and take a sidestep to do something else. I have already figured out this pattern and am working on the middle right now and writing it down. Three different blocks make up this main block.

I will just do one set and go back to my project at hand and when I get that top done I will make a new thread for this one. Isn't it grand?

I am having my afternoon mocha. This is how I make it. Half cup of brewed coffee (from this morning) and two teaspoons of Nestles instand milk chocolate mix, and fill the rest of the cup with milk and heat.

What is "S & C"?

Bridget and I both believe these are beauties and love what you did with the "undesirables"! We love them.
