I will have to try a scrappy one of these days. Yours is very nice.

Pam Riggs 03-07-2012 08:14 AM

I love scrappy quilts. I make charm quilts - they are very scrappy looking. give it a try!

onaemtnest 03-07-2012 09:03 AM

Such a great feeling when the quilt envisioned turns out 'just the way' we hoped it would. So many have stated that they love scrappy quilts, please add my name to the list! I think yours is just wonderfully scrappy and a delight to the eyes!

Izy 03-07-2012 09:05 AM

Great job, scrappies are my favourite quilts these days :D

cassiemae 03-07-2012 09:12 AM

I think your quilt is very nice and I like the bright colors. I make a lot of scrappy quilts it is a good way to use up extra pieces. Keep quilting.

countryone77 03-07-2012 09:18 AM

It's delightful. It looks like it will be a "happy" quilt :-).

margecam52 03-07-2012 09:26 AM

I also like the scrappy look...and yours is very nice.

Sewfine 03-07-2012 01:25 PM

It looks good, coming along nicely.

Debbie C 03-07-2012 01:38 PM

love scrappies! yours is so bright and cheery!! I think I'd border with yellows and dark blues (imho, of course)....can't wait to see how you finish it!

mcdaniel023 03-07-2012 01:44 PM

I love the look. It brings back memories of the quilts my aunt made in the 70's.

luvstoquilt 03-07-2012 02:48 PM

Love it...scrappy is my favorite!

bunbytes 03-07-2012 03:51 PM

I love the bright colors!

Janice Thompson 03-07-2012 05:25 PM

I just got in to scrappy quilts. What about--- outline with a dark blue or black 2-1/2" border then add as many borders to make the size you want

CherryPie 03-07-2012 06:53 PM

Looks great. I'm a scrappy fan, too. Anxious to see it finished.

connie d 03-07-2012 08:22 PM

I too love scrappy quilts. Nice job!! :)

Janet L52 03-07-2012 08:45 PM

Very pretty! I hope you will post a picture when it is finished. Thank you for sharing!

jansquiltn 03-08-2012 03:41 AM

That is exactly what I need to do with all of the charm squares I've collected! Great Job!

starlite 03-08-2012 05:29 AM

I love the scrappy look. Just the way grandma used to make.

Elaine433 03-08-2012 05:43 AM

Great job! Love it!

hershery 03-08-2012 06:47 AM

i love scrappies also, keep up the great work. it will be done before you know it.

EagarBeez 03-08-2012 07:08 AM

I have yet to do a scrappy. I have a list of quilts a lap quilt and a baby quilt. I have been growing my scraps. I think by the time I am done with them, I will then attempt a scrap quilt. I love them, they give a warm feeling. I love your scrappy

MadP 03-08-2012 07:08 AM

I love scrappy quilts too, I am working on one too.

caspharm 03-08-2012 09:09 AM

Looks good to me. :)

wordpaintervs 03-08-2012 11:27 AM

love the colors and overall look of the quilt. I am trying to use up a lot of 'scraps' and lace' on the line of a crazy quilt, then will cut out the 16 inch by 48 inch needed for the shirts of the dolls (cloth) I make and give away to kids with devestating medical problems (like cancer, etc). I just thought I could work on it once in awhile, while still making the regular doll dresses and hats. I just thought maybe if it comes out looking okay, it would be something extra special in a dress. I love 'color' also. Maybe some solid color for the top with a 'strip of crazy quilt' left over from the skirt part
on it. Hope that makes sense. The dolls stand 22 or so inches tall and are topsy turvy. Some of you have probably seen the pictures of them. 91 so far and still going. i have medical problems, but it doesn't stop me from sewing and knitting, etc. There are others far worse off then me.

Keep up the good job on that quilt. I'd love to see the finished product.

Looks good - reminds me of quilts from my childhood.

Scrappy Quilts
 
My DH says that is what "real" quilt making is. Using up scraps in a way that makes something usable. I love it. Great job!

Mazda 03-08-2012 02:36 PM

How big are the squares?

Rumbols 03-08-2012 02:43 PM

Gorgeous quilt. Thanks for posting.

helenquilt 03-08-2012 03:51 PM

Looks really good, I love scrappy quilts. It would be pretty with a small solid border then a piano key wider border.

mountain deb 03-08-2012 04:40 PM

Looking good, now are you going to border it or just bind it.

nstitches4u 03-08-2012 05:10 PM

Very pretty!

ging10ging 03-08-2012 05:14 PM
