    Very nice scrappy quilt! The light streaks really stand out and unify the quilt.

    I love the colors and the great way to set off the scrappy squares. I am in a 6 1/2 inch block betting swap so I have hundreds of squares. Cutting/sewing them to make 9 patch pieces will be a great way to use them. Also lots of the Y2K swap pieces from over 10 years ago. Thanks for sharing. You have inspired me!!

    I love scrappy quilts and your is very pretty. Good for you to get it done. You did a great job.
    I posted a picture of my D9P Friday night, so many have been posting, it is now about 3 or 4 pages back. 10th since I retired in June and 14 for the year. I spend most free time sewing and it pays off. Am making simple deer quilts for my 2 deer hunting Grandsons.

    Love the looks of it, putting the white in really ties it together, my scrap quilts are just so "too much." Looks cuddly warm, too!

    Glad you have been inspired, Mim.. this was a labor of love, as I had to decide if I really wanted to finish, lol.. I am so glad I have, though.. good luck on your project!
