    I pulled all of this from my scraps & stash!

    Today, I've got to re-organize the stash or I won't start another one!

    Considering all of these colors, I need some advice for the backing - and binding.
    Let me know what you think!

    It's beautiful.

    Those are my kind of scrappies---they use up scraps and you don't have to go out and buy more fabric. A lot of scrap quilts have a main 'pull-it-all-together 'fabric so sometimes you have to go out and buy that fabric and you use less scraps. Am I making sense?

    Can't help on the binding/backing---maybe black for binding ....or a black border and then a scrappy binding.

    I just love all the colors. When I do a scrap, I use muslin on the back.

    Blue seems to dominate, so I'd go with a blue binding..

    It's really really pretty!!!!

    I see mostly blues, with some red in there for some punch! I think I'd go with a red border or binding!

    That's really pretty. I think I'd go with some of those neutrals for the border, and then the blue for the binding.
