I really like all three....very creative on your part. Come on over to my house and help me use up my scraps. Three excellent quilts at no extra fabric to buy, way to go.

Very nice use of your scraps. I like "mindless" sewing and will get more accomplished when the strips are precut. Keep up the great work!

Yes I did. I sewed the number of strips together and then trimmed into the correct lengths so I had squares. Since it is scrappy, it doesn't matter--when one strips ends, you start another one. Then, I pressed and took it to the cutting board and trimmed to the correct length.

Saw the red one, thought that was pretty, scrolled down to yellow - wow, the different sashing changes it so much... Saw the black one! Oh my gosh, it's gorgeous. Looks like stained glass!
