    Default neverending scraps!

    I cannot seem to catch up on the scrap bins!

    This is from the #8 mystery quilt.

    I wantedto add another border with the 4th star point, but it is a charity quilt, and they ask that we don't turn in anything wider than 40-42" so they can use a WOF instead of piecing the backings.

    Great use of scraps for a worthwhile cause. Bless you. Someone special will love to cuddle up with this!

    I think scrappys are so cute. And those who work with them and make them turnout like you have done are absolute genius. Mine usually just looks crappy therefore it becomes a crazy!

    That's a great little quilt. I'm very involved with our area Quilts for Kids and we too ask that if you are turning in a quilt top that it stays around 40". Easier and cheaper to back it.

    Scrappys are my fav! Yours is gorgeous. I really need to start using up a bunch of nickels I've cut...but want to finish a Civil War top I've started first.

    There is just something I love about scrappies - and this one is especially nice. Love those bright spots of the yellow star.
