It is as though with each new scrappy quilt I make, I end up with even more scraps!! I just vowed to make my next quilt out of some of my new, untouched fabric because I am always buying new fabric and not using it! I just can't resist buying it but my scraps have a hold on me!! I love doing QAYG (quilt as you go) quilts with my scraps and string quilts too and patchwork quilts are great for using up your one and two inchers!

I've done QG table runners, but not quilts. I would love to have a pattern for one. Would you write here and tell us what pattern you use.

Thanks, MaryJane

Yes, I am a fabric-holic I confess...

Done rambling for now! Sorry, your post just got me going!
