    Default Using What You Have
    I've had this top done for a while, but was undecided on backing it. I dug into my 7 inch scrap squares and made a scrappy patchwork back. When I trimmed it after quilting, I used the trimming from around the back as binding. The last picture is a closeup of a few of the fun fabrics in this one.

    Very nicely done. I seem to always struggle when I attempt to do a scrappy quilt.
