    My scrap tub is absolutely full. I can't seem to throw fabric away. It's all too precious - right?

    Here is a tutorial to use up some of your scrap tub.

    The tutorial is for a cushion / pillow, but can just as easily be made into a quilt.

    I'd love to know what you think :-)

    It does look good...I love raggy quilts but something tells me I would be tempted to turn under the raw edges....Madness I know and probably defeats the whole purpose. Think I need to loosen up a bit! Thanks for the link:).

    Interesting. Question: is she leaving all the edges raw?

    Yes the edges are raw. It's got a lovely soft fluffy texture :-)
