    Love your beautiful use of scraps. Your swirls look great, but totally understand the labor involved in quilting the same design over and over. I've heard of people using adding tape before, but it sure makes a cute simple border to your wonderful quilt. Enjoy the fruits of your labor!

    It is difficult for me to think of your beautiful finish as a scrappy quilt... You did a wonderful job marrying the colors in your log cabin. Hats off to you for such awesome quilting on such a large project on your DSM. I stress over baby blankets on mine.... LOL

    This is a gorgeous example of what can be accomplished with scraps, some planning and a DSM. So glad you didn’t send this one out. It is beautiful!

    Wow. That is inspiring. I, too, have bags and bins of scraps and strips. Love the colors and love the quilting, too.

    Nice, crisp colors! What a beautiful use of scraps. The border looks great - all scraps should be so lucky as to end up in such a nice quilt. Thanks for sharing!

    Love the quilt and the border. It looks well planned and not scrappy.

    Maybe you can't see any difference in your scrap stash but you certainly came out with a fabulous quilt. Congratulations!

    Stunning, can't believe you quilted it on your DSM.
