    Saturday I watched a gal do a neat block with scraps. She took a square. added strips around it to frame it, then layed a bigger template down and cut at an angel. She said you can get different looks by just turning the template.
    I tried 4 blocks. Do they look ok? be honest please. :D Should I keep going? :?:

    I think they look fun. I might set them with a solid sashing if they were mine... just to let each shine. But it you want a crazy quilt look then setting them next to each other will do that. I LOVE scrappy looking quilts. They're interesting!

    I've seen several patterns like that in my online shopping and in magazines. I liked it best with sashing between. Great way to use up scraps!

    I think they look great. I make alot of scrap quilts. I am horrible at color coordinating fabric. With scrap quilts you don't have to worry about it. lol
