Great use of your scraps! Thanks for sharing the pics of a 3. Nice to see the different accent colors~

Wow!! You sure had a lot of scraps! You turned them into some very nice quilts. Thank you for sharing.

All of the quilts are lovely. Hard to decide which one I like best. Great use of your scraps!

Awesome. Isn't it great how different colors can make such a difference

I just sorted through a lot of my fabric and didn't realize how much very useable sized 'scrap' fabric I owned. Have been making quilts for almost 30 years and only OWN the one I made my mother for her 90th birthday (that I got back after her passing). Have made an annual church raffle quilt all those years and MANY quilts given as gifts and fundraisers and of course have scraps from all of them. My favorite pattern is the Log Cabin and hoping that (maybe next year) I can put together a neat looking Log Cabin using some of all those quilts and have myself a Memory quilt. Thanks for sharing your work. Looks like you had lots of scraps, also!!! Nice to see them put together.

Yes, and I have a lot again. I have a whole box (about 2.5' tall and 18" square) of just 2.5" strips. I made about 5 or 6 of those jelly roll strip style scrappy quilts and used up a lot of them last year (like here...http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t-t194791.html ) but alas, the box is full again!

It is my goal to finish them all the tops up into quilts this year. I think I had over 30 scrappy quilt tops of some type or another. I'm always on the lookout for a great scrappy pattern--easy, fast, but pretty.

Very nice, here go my scraps. Plenty to make strips with.

Looks like a puzzle all nested together, love the red and black ones the most. What an accomplishment to use up all those scraps and have something so beautiful for the fruits of your labor!
