I really like this modern quilt and love using up scraps.

I save my scraps for my string bins. When straightening my ends before cutting strips I cut them just a little larger than I used to so they can be used for strings. Mostly 1" to 1 1/4" - I'll also join lengthwise and put them together. Here is my latest string block quilt. Needed a fast baby quilt, and then I bought a wonderful applique design mono and had to use that!

Most of my quilts are scrap quilts. I am currently making a red,white and blue log cabin quilt for a wounded soldier. Here are some of my latest quilts, both quilts went to the 2 charities that I make quilts for. The first picture is a Spiderweb quilt, forgot how long it takes to quilt a twin size quilt. The second quilt is a log cabin, it hung in my guild's quilt show last year. The quilt judge was amazed at the sheer number of scraps, over 200 different fabrics; one of my grandkids counted them. :shock:
Both quilts went to the 2 charities I sew quilts for; The Linus Connection and Thank You Quilters, the 2 groups I sew for. #1 is for in-need kids, #2 is for wounded soldiers at Ft. Hood Army base in Texas. Sharon Weaver |

Hee hee.. confession. its not white.. well it WAS white but it got dyed baby blue.. lol... just enough to soften it a bit and not make the strips shout " IN YOUR FACE" lol..
Second confession.. wasnt me who dyed it.. lol.. someone did, hated it and gifted it to me.. lol.. Soooooooo that makes this quilt almost free to make.. lol... Sharon |
Love it ! first scrappy quilt I love. Now I know what to do with my scraps. I never throw anything away. I just love all the ideas I get from this board. My quilt club thinks I am so smart. So I have begun forwarding some of the ideas from here to them so they now know my secret !
