Emma I think it turned out amazing! I love it larger and I understand about not putting a dent in the scraps have completed 4 of BH scrappies and still have scraps to last a lifetime. Does not even begin to take account for my stash of yardage

Emma I love your beautiful quilt!!! I'm still piecing, but mine will be 5X6 blocks. Scraps? Well I've sewed almost only scraps for 3 years, and my shelves are still full of scraps. I think they multiple during the night when I'm not looking. I love it--scrappy is my favorite.

Judy: Your designs are usually on a different scale then I usually use. This time I realized making a larger scale makes the result much more modern, an idea to play around with.

Love your quilt, Emma!
Just finished putting the border on mine. Last night I tried to figure out how to do a mitered piece but totally messed that up. Decided to go with a 4 patch. Easy peasy! Wish I had made my quilt a little bigger because I love it so much. (Maybe not as big as Emma's!)
Thank you, Judy, for another amazing ride!!
I am hoping to get a top quilted before the next train leaves the station. That will be difficult since I babysit 4 days this week and next plus my DD gets home tuesday night after 1 1/2 years in France. I will need to pamper her a bit and make her favorite meals while she is here. On the other hand, maybe I can get her to babysit while I sew. hmmm.....
