Judyjo,

Since it's my first quilt, no wait, my first sewing project, there are no scraps in it. It started as a lap quilt made from Kaffe Fassett stripes and dark red, gray, and navy solids. I figured it would probably be the only quilt I ever made so when I started cutting fabric, I started to ummm... expand it. I found more of the original KF fabric and added some other striped and patterned cloth to it. There is a whimsey or two also thrown in. The quilt top is now 102x108 inches. There are 100 9x9 inch (finished) blocks in the basic design. It is sized for a tall queen bed with a lot of overhang.
