Scraps always work. The more colors you use the better the quilt looks. After a quilt like that you would think that there are less scraps..............No it seems that they multiply at night when we go to sleep. Right ????? Hugs

Will gift this to my nephew and his wife this coming weekend. It seemed to take forever, but it is finished!
