    This was made out of 2 1/2 inch block left over material from different quilts that I have made. It seem like a never ending to the left overs.

    I love scrap quilts and this is wonderful. I love your choice of pattern. I have never seen a scrap one in this design and it is a fantastic choice.

    Totally lovely. See those small squares makes me admire it more. Can't imagine your stash of fabric to be able to master that pattern.

    I love that pattern and your quilt.

    That is a pattern I use my scraps for to make quilts for the nursing home. I cut my small leftovers into 2 1/2" squares and save in a baggie. Cut the light sqares 6 1/2" and sew, almost a free quilt.

    Another good scrap buster is Bright Hopes pattern. I save my 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" pieces in another baggie. My centers are all white and using childrens prints make good hospital quilts.
