    Great quilts! It feels good when you use up all the fabrics from the start of one project, isn't it? Now, what could you do with those leftover scraps???

    Thanks all.

    Teasgurl -- you'd be in shock here. Highs in the mid 60's and scattered sun (means it's raining most of the day).

    All the quilts are just improv -- no pattern. I did all the quilting free motion on my Bernina 440. I think the reason I was determined to use the scraps up -- these fabrics, though I love them, are very different from anything else in my stash, and I didn't envision using them in later scrap projects, so it was a good idea to use up the coordinating collection in projects that showcase them together.

    Those strings I have left are seriously just that, strings. The photo is larger than life ; ) I do have the one circle and one square that is less than an inch, which I think I will incorporate into the care label I usually make to give with quilts.

    Beautiful quilts! So, how much fabric to start off with for the first quilt?
