Ditto....its so fast and easy to make a second scrappy quilt/table runner/pot holder...by using leaders and enders.

It is a way to sew 2 quilts at a time without really thinking about the second quilt...just doing them inbetween the other piecing. The Quiltville site has a great explanation and lots of scrap quilt possibilities!
