    I may have misled you all into thinking that all of these quilts are made from scraps - sorry to have done that. Only the first one (pinwheels) was scraps.Did not use a book just sized the pinwheels to be same as the other blocks and kept making them until I thought I had enough!

    ALL beautiful and so inspiring! I love the way you did the borders on the "Maine" one ... Hadn't thought of putting all the sides on, then the top and bottom! I'm going to do that on my next QFK or lap quilt. Love them all!

    Wonderful quilts and so much fun using "scraps." My avitar is 98% scraps and I just loved making it. We are making give away quilts with scraps from many precious people (several on this board provided material as well) and I just love the way they are coming out. Am so glad to see different things - thanks so much for sharing your lovely quilts.

    Scraps multiply once you turn the light out in your sewing room :wink:
    Had a hunch it was something like that.
