Completely reversible king-size quilt; both sides are made totally from scraps.
I used Warm & Natural batting. It's a bit heavy as it's got so many (thousands,
it seemed!) seam allowances enclosed
so it's nice to be able to "change" the quilt
by just turning it over.
This one is "Buggy Wheels". I used white sashing and white binding on this side.
I dubbed this [string quilt] side "Just the Scraps, Ma'am"! I used black sashing
and black binding on this side.
These two photos show the reverse of each side.

Scrappy Star for Charisma
Ladies...I finished something!
Charisma sent a box of scraps my way in March of this year...piece something scrappy in trade for quilting a top of the same size for me. I cut 2.5" squares and sewed, cut and sewed. Then what? I stalled.
QuilterMamma posted a beautiful log cabin star months ago...just when I was stalled with putting these scrappy triangles together. Last night I finished Charisma's scrappy star.
Thanks Charisma for the challenge and QuilterMamma for getting the juices flowing again. This is my first scrappy and it was great fun.

BTW - Love, love, love the Buggy Wheels!
