    Beautiful quilt, I do most all my quilts with a large stipple or meander. I made 8 scrappy quilts so far this year and I plan to do more. I made 4 not scrappy quilts and scraps are piling up again. I think it is impossible to use up all scraps.

    Oh my, this is beautiful! Do you mind sharing the size of the nine patches? I think you made two at a time, which is one of my favorite methods (one positive and one negative block). I've used scrappy nine patches with alternating plain blocks, but prefer your composition. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!!!! :-)

    Well ---- all I can say was that I was so excited when I saw your quilt, that I skipped reading about the 2.5 inch strips. Now, I've got that in the memory bank along with the sashing. Your two borders set off the floral border to the max. :-)

    I love scrappy! Well executed! Sometimes the simple is the most impressive.

    Looks great - love the final border you chose. Sets everything off really well.

    Awesome, just love the many scrappies that can be produced from leftover fabric.
