    The flag quilt is a very old design made from tumbler blocks sewn in rows in the flag colors. No pattern needed other then a template for the tumbler shape. I used the 6 1/2" tumbler Go die.

Of course each bag differs as I note a pic from another post of her pcs. Must be ends of when they put kits together and such because I was able to put many coordinating pieces together that will make a darling scrap quilt. I measured each piece, marked with an address label, and sorted. So much fun to 'pet' the fabric no matter the size.

    I love scrap bags. My LQS has a basket where you can fill up a bag for $6, but there's nothing like opening a packing and getting the surprise of finding out what's inside!

    If I recall, Keepsake Quilting also has scrap bags. I haven't ordered any (yet!), but seeing the ads in the Keepsake catalog, each bag contains around 3 yards of scraps of varying widths. Have fun with your surprises!
