You are after my own heart! Love love love scrappy quilts! And I love all the comments here about buying items at a thrift store for the fabric. What a great great idea! My DH just will not believe that I want him to go to the thrift store with me for fabric. I can see the puzzled look on his face right now! But sweet man that he is, he will go! Anyway ... glad it is coming along quickly. We need a pic now ... and then later!
