    I have a hard time with scrappy too. But your quilt colors are very pretty. And I saw your other quilt of the same design and it is absolutely gorgeous.

    I keep trying to talk my self into something scrappy - mostly becuase I have a ton of scraps. I had a good time organizing them and cutting them into strips - but for the life of me am having a hard time deciding what to do with them.

    There is not enough of any one color or pattern to contol any part of it. I have decided to practice my pinwheels with my scraps. Maybe some day I will use them - but probably not!

    It's great! I love scrappys. My daugher would love the colors used! Great job, even though it was hard for you to do!

    I love your quilt. It it so pretty. I can't do scrappy either. I have too much OCD. I still admire them.

    kk it's called "Woven Ribbons". I modified the pattern a little, so mine is 8.5 x 5.5 inch blocks with 8.5 x 2 inch strips on either side. Easy peasy. Make as few or as many as you want, add borders and Voila!

    Scrappy was tough for me until I looked at it as darks,mediums, and lights... then I got over it!! :) It's been fun. I will most definitely do another one...

    I love this quilt. I am the opposite, I can sit down and just throw pieces together. The scrappier the better I like it. I guess I am not organized cause I don't have time to plan a project just throw it together. I love this one and I am gonna have to try it.
