Wow...you are amazing....I loved the story and all of the wonderful pictures...I have tons of scraps also and need to do the same. Everytime I make a quilt the next one I make is pure scraps. I need to do what you are doing....just crank out a ton of scrap quilts before I buy more or did in to my stash

Oh my goodness! So that's how far they go! I've got some work to do too!
I wasn't going to buy any fabric this year but......Your quilts are fabulous. When did you sleep? So many good idea's.
Better get cracking and make some space in my cupboard too.

Now, what will you do with them? You did a fantastic job. The sashing really sets the blocks off. Amazing what you have accomplished. Will you tie them or quilt them. I sure hope you have a long-arm or at least a friend with one.
I am really impressed and you make me want to cut up all my scraps and start using them. It is wonderful how they all seemed to go together. Congratulations.

Love your quilts, it is hard to pick a favorite. I love scrappy quilts and you can do so many things with 2.5 squares. I keep a box of 2.5 squares. I don't cut up my extra fabric, but if I have small pieces that are 2.5 then I save those. They also come in handy when I want to do a sample block, or if my DGD wants a quilt for her doll - she will go through my basket - picks her squares and we put together a small quilt.
