Scrappy HST - Which Pattern?
 
3 Attachment(s)
I am using up scraps making HST with the Magic 8 method. But am not sure what will look best for the top.
The Random, the Stripes (kinda stripes), or the Diamond?
What do you think?

i like the zig zag look of the first pic

gramajo 06-04-2017 02:29 PM

I like the diamonds.

meyert 06-04-2017 02:42 PM

any way will be great... I like the diamonds best :)

anne2016 06-04-2017 02:55 PM

I like the Diamond layout best.

mmac71 06-04-2017 04:32 PM

I vote for the third choice!

JustAbitCrazy 06-04-2017 05:30 PM

I vote for diamonds! This will be really pretty!

Jennifer23 06-04-2017 06:29 PM

I like the stripes (#2). For me, it's visually the most simple, and I like the pattern in a scrappy quilt to counterbalance the busy combination of all the fabrics. Whatever you choose will be great!

I vote for the 3rd one............................

pewa88 06-04-2017 07:01 PM

I like the first one. Great idea and it will be pretty.

Well shoot!! I have been working my little (not so much wish it was) butt off, making HST's for the My Carolina Home's Scrap Dance Waltz. If you have so many already made, you have to check out the pattern. BTW she also has two others--Scrap Dance and Scrap Dance Tango, plus the Scrap Dance Two Step that is the new mystery pattern this year.

Stevensgirl 06-04-2017 07:26 PM

I vote for the third/diamond design.

Gail B 06-05-2017 06:38 AM

I prefer the diamond one but any of the 3 would make a nice quilt.

Jordan 06-05-2017 09:22 AM

I like the third picture-it looks like pinwheels and that is one of my favorite designs. But that is just my personal opinion.

LavenderBlue 06-05-2017 09:28 AM

All are nice but my favorite is #3. ;-)

quiltlady1941 06-05-2017 10:02 AM

I like the diamonds but the others are great looking quilt too..

AVFD215 06-05-2017 11:35 AM

Thank you all for the input.
I can't believe I've accumulated way more scraps to make more than 2 quilts.
I think I will make the diamonds.

Thanks.
Mike

Just watched Eleanor burns June webinar-Ocean Waves- Great way to use up scraps...I just ordered the pattern from QIAD - accuquilt/Eleanor Burns version...

nativetexan 06-05-2017 05:39 PM

first one or the third one would be good.

ljptexas 06-06-2017 04:08 AM

Just play around until you are happy..... so many choices....

Reba'squilts 06-06-2017 04:14 AM

Number 3 gets my vote!

Beachbaby12 06-06-2017 05:39 AM

They are all nice but I like the third - it's all personal preference.

Innov8R 06-06-2017 05:43 AM

The third one is most pleasing to my eye. Whatever you choose will be nice.

Sarint 06-06-2017 11:24 AM

Diamonds is my first choice. They are all pretty.

Madgie Rae 06-06-2017 01:15 PM

IMOH the diamonds are the best!

That is the most appealing to me too.

zozee 06-07-2017 05:59 AM

Diamonds! They jumped off the page !

susie-susie-susie 06-07-2017 06:11 AM

I like the first on the best, but they are all pretty. I think the reason I like the first one is the light and dark colors alternating.

they're all look beautiful to me! just get it finished! thanks for sharing!

MadQuilter 06-07-2017 01:11 PM

Either one would give you great results.

MadQuilter 06-07-2017 01:13 PM

Either one would give you great results.

I started sharing my scraps with a friend who works with leaders and enders. There is a bag by the trash can and I decide on a whim if it's a scrap I want to keep, a scrap for the bag, or if it's not worth keeping so in the trash it goes. That has helped contain my scrap heap and makes a friend happy.

mic-pa 06-07-2017 04:01 PM

I like the second one. I made a scrappy half sq triangle quilt and made one side light the other side dk and when arranged in that order they really looked sharp Good luck in what ever your choice is

topper1 06-07-2017 04:06 PM

All are great....I would do stripes......... really love hsts
