Who knew you could accumulate so many scraps in under 3 years? And there are still more!!! Do they breed in my sewing room?
    Love your scrappy quilt. What a neat way to organize. You're an inspiration!
    To answer your question: Yes, I'm certain they do breed! :roll:

    What a lovely quilt. And what organization. About the only way to really see what you have & do something with it. Great inspiration.
