What do your quilt scraps say about you?
 
When going through my scraps to make a scrap quilt I realized my scraps say a lot about me. What I found out first was I'm on my way to being a hoarder. Second I tend to use more red in my quilts than other colors. Third I steer away from large prints. Fourth my fabric types are more traditional. All being said I think I'm a conservative traditional quilter who likes a little spice (red) in her life. What do your scraps say about you?

My say my favorite colors are green, blue and purple. I tend to hoard them, too. I am trying to make better use of my scraps this year. I am on my second scrappy quilt and still can't get the lid on the tubbie. Please don't tell me to buy a bigger tubbie.....I already did and it's too full.

Looking at my scrappy stash ....tells me ,never have enough.

I think my stash says that I am a cheerful person and apparently I don't like flowers (which is true).

My scraps aren't plentiful so that says that I need to sew more to make more.

My scraps tell me I rarely encounter a fabric I don't like or find a use.

My scraps told me to stop saving them and not do anything with them. So they all got bagged up for the guilds use. I already used the fabric once, or twice...no need to use it again. And it felt absolutely wonderful to get them all out of there!

Memepat, A
Your description of you could be about me, too, exactly. A conservative traditionalist who likes a bit of spice...for me, red and yellow. :)

Mine says I'm a Magpie that loves loud colors and big prints. I'm in the process of making my scraps into hst or flying geese blocks of a similar size so I'll have working units with which to play. Which of course creates more scraps. I'm sensing a problem here. : )
