    Default 1 1/2 scrap Strip quilt - finished pics at post 88

    What do you do with a small rubbermaid tote of scrap 1 1/2" strips?
    Make "Anything Goes"....that's what I call it. :D
    It's got a little of everything...all scraps!
    It measures 60 X 87...

    Trying to decide if I should add borders?
    Any suggestions? yes - no????

    **Used these instructions**

    I love it! Great colors! Cheery! Fast and simple. And think of all the ways you could take off from this point by cutting squares, HST, using sashing... My mind is reeling!

    I love it. What a great scrappy quilt. I would use a solid border. Great job.

    It's wonderful. Not too bright at all. I would definitely add a border. Maybe a dark blue.
