    I still didn't use them all up. Going to start on another scrappy with different pattern and colors.
    Thanks for looking, no design wall and I just put them together.
    Now that's my kind of quilt! Maybe one day I will get the courage to clean up all my scraps too.

    Awesome Job!! I now know why I Love Scrappy quilts! They are beautiful and my grandmother made all hers from scraps. I found one that is 75 years old that I'm trying to restore. Love the scrappy quilt!
