Here is one of my favorite scrappy quilts, Crab Apples by Bonnie Hunter. I've never posted a picture before, so I'm hoping it works.

I love them, I love and make scrapy Quilts. It seems that I end up with more material when I am done with a quilt than what I started with.

The strip twist is my favorite. so much energy! Karen

Love looking at all these quilts!
I've been wanting to make the 'strip twist' for quite some time. I saw it on Bonnie Hunter's site as well as the one similar to your 'donation quilt' ... I did do a top similar but still have not quilted it .. one of my flaws is that I love to make the tops and then jump to another quilt b4 finishing. here is the one similar to yours .... http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...p-t129692.html yup it has been 18 months, and still not done ... yikes, altho I did add a scrappy border. This 'thread' is already up to 183 pages, so I'm not sure I'll add any more scrappy quilt pix, but enjoying looking at them sooooo much! |
The twist strip is so interesting. I can't figure out how it looks like the blocks are in rows. And with only scraps, it's pretty amazing. I love it.

Since this thread has been so quiet I thought I'd share a couple of my scrappies. These pics are of my latest string quilt, which was donated to a group home for youngsters who have aged out of foster care.

Very nice! I'm working on some right now ... clearing out a bin full of strips from a fabric designer's tag sale!
