    I love how you've combined novelty prints, florals, plaids . . . a little bit of everything which is truly a scrap quilt. Based on your scraps, I think that you are partial to blues. Please continue posting updates as it progresses. It is going to be a gorgeous quilt.

    ok so I've got most of my individual blocks sewn together.. Still have the semi whites, greens, purples left.. but I was thinking of off centering them.. Which one is more pleasing to the eye?? there's alot of 'confusion ' going on in this quilt but I would like the squares to be noticeable in this mess of scrappies..

    All older quilts were made with what was on hand! Looks great to me! You are doing what the old timers call make do and use it up! (Is that being green?)

    ok I made just enough squares- what a coincidence! yea, that was so not planned as I didn't count I just matched and sewed.. The 'lights' don't seem light enough but ,well hey, it's a scrappy and will be perfect for our camper- No one would be able to tell if it gets a spill on it anyway its so busy.. .

    so tomorrow Ill square them- some are just plain wonky- and hopefully get them all sewed together..

    I am liking the 'off centered' look.. thanks for the advice..

    More pics when Im finished..

    finished the last block.. perfect count!
