Scrappy quilts are actually my favorite. When I first started quilting I was so jealous of them because I couldn't imagine having such a variety of fabric laying around. I was on a budget and in a space that wouldn't allow for much fabric storage.
I never would have dreamed that I would move back to my hometown and inherit more fabric than I knew what to do with. Once I get through my grandma's UFOs enough to feel like I can start my own project it will likely be a scrap quilt. I keep eyeing her perfectly color sorted scap drawers in the corner of the sewing room and resisting playing with them.
Oh and for those who dont know me, hi. I am currently working my way through my grandma's UFOs and trying to turn an enormous stash into something manageable. I suspect I will have my first top finished this week. Its really a top she had thrown together for a charity quilt that I am making more adult sized for a friend's birthday.
