My goodness GML -- that is beautiful !! I kept seeing all sorts of patterns in it the longer I looked -- you were so right to call it "controlled scrappy. The consistent use of the fabrics made the patterns. Thanks for sharing -- Mim

Not sure if you mean my quilt thanks!.... but just in case you do, it is a variation of the Jacob's Ladder pattern, of which there are several. Basically it is made from 4 patches and HST in a 9 patch formation. Three 4 Patches running diagonally, with the HST placed with dark sides touching 4 Patches and two opposite corners turned dark side out which form the diamonds when blocks are turned...clear as mud?

:lol: :D
OK, Izy, you'll have to do a tutorial on this process now...because it is clear as mud! LOL!
Blessings,
MaryAnna
You want me to do a tute on how to make a 4 patch or HST?? Oh come on you ALL know how to do that by now don't you?? LOL

It really is just the way you lay them out in the individual blocks, have a close look at these pictures and hopefully you can work it out!

;-)

This is eight blocks lay out, you can see how you turn the blocks to create the diamonds and cross pattern!

What! Only 39 pages of beautiful scrappy quilts. I guess it's time for me to go to bed then since it's almost midnight. I guess you all know what I will be dreaming about...beautiful scrappy quilts made from my scraps. :thumbup:

If you have a scrappy quilt ~ controlled or not please share!

Here are the ones that I have made over the years and have only put a very small dent in my scrap pile :roll:

:mrgreen:
Show us your scrappy
Never thought I liked scrappy's till I saw yours! Maybe I will loosen up!
