I am using scraps....I can't seem to throw anything away so my blocks are white's and creams for the back ground fabrics and I have tons of scraps for the colored parts. So far my blocks are way way pretty....can't wait to get more block patterns :o)

I want to do this too. The site said get a friend and the TWO of you do this together. My bestest sister here (Dori) is doing great! I'm laggin WAY behind. But Dori is my inspiration! Love you Sista!!

I've finished all the first blocks except for the embroidery. I'm doing mine using black & white prints and solid white.

Hi Dori, Me too...I have way too many scraps, but I'm in FL until mid=March, so I'm collecting the patterns, (but, the urge is there to get started, know what I mean? Might have to buy a little fabric to get started.....) ah, well..... isn't that the way it goes? But what we've been given so far makes me think this will be a great quilt!

I love the idea of it being done in scraps! Dori, do you have any pics? I would love to see it!

Well shoot! I really didn't plan to do this quilt........however I did print the the pattern from the 1st instalement, .......but after seeing the scrappy blocks (scrappy is my favorite!) I may just have to go get to work!! What ever is a gal supposed to do! I have so many projects started, needing to be finished and then I start another? I'm 75 years old. I hope I live long enough to finish at least a few more! But its soooo much fun "starting" a new project!!
