another scrappy

Binding's on! This is my version of the scrappy that PaperPrincess shared with us last summer. I've been using this lockdown time trying to use up my scraps.

Nice. Very nice.

Sew cheerful! Have you come anywhere near using up your scraps? I've made a big art quilt (Covid Crisis) and a bed quilt with colors blending like a color wheel (sometimes with a little help from paints), all from my stash & scraps. You'd never know anything was missing. I had a talk with myself about using everything up (that will never happen) and thought about the pleasure, the therapy, the satisfaction, the fun and the friends sewing has given me over the ups and downs of many years, and decided using up doesn't matter.

Your scrappy looks like you had a lot of fun and satisfaction, too. It's going to make someone very happy.

LOL! not at all... they seem to breed while I'm not looking!

Love this in every way. I, too, have been trying to use up my scraps and find even those quilts leave more scraps, albeit smaller in some case. (I just finished the pieces for Bonnie Hunter's new mystery with an abundance of FQs I had on hand, but now have pieces of all colors to decide to keep, cut smaller or donate.) It is a never ending mission. So kudos to you for staying in the fight.

I love scrappy quilts! It seems like most of my quilts these days are scrappy and I am no where close to making a dent in them. Right now I have a queen size scrappy ready to quilt and it is all basted and ready to go. Your quilt is so beautiful. I just love it.

Fabulous use of scraps - and lovely quilting too! So cheerful.

Cathy, Your quilt is beautiful. I have an abundance also and still cutting them up into sizes can use. They never go away, however, remember we paid for all those too!

cjsews 01-12-2021 09:33 AM

Oh. Setting them on point with the constant color cornerstones really is nice

sewbizgirl 01-12-2021 09:38 AM

Gorgeous! Great use of color and great quilting.

Great scrappy! I love looking at scrap quilts, the green clamshells is in my stash!

deborahscanlon 01-12-2021 01:26 PM

Your quilt is just so darn pretty and I LOVE your borders. They make the quilt. Great, great job.

Cheshirepat 01-12-2021 02:06 PM

I love both the original and your version! You guys make me want to complete a scrappy! Beautiful.

Beautiful scrappy, great variety of colors.

I used my scraps and my Daughter's once. Now I am using scraps again, just mine this time. Doubt I will ever use these up as I made more to have a better color selection.

Oh those blue cornerstones are perfect. they show off the colors beautifully. Great quilt!

Karamarie 01-12-2021 04:00 PM

Very nice, I love scrappies.

GingerK 01-12-2021 05:25 PM

Clean and simple. It is beautiful. The sashing and cornerstones are perfect and I love the on point setting. Great job! I will remember this one.

Awesome quilt. I have a bunch of 4-square blocks that I didn't know what to do with. Many thanks to you and to PaperPrincess for the inspiration to finally do something with them

Vasilisa 01-13-2021 01:19 AM

As others have said - "cheerful" is the first thing you can think of when looking at this quilt. Great job!

That's lovely! And your quilting is wonderful.

Beautiful quilt. The colors look so cheerful. It does seem like there are always more scraps left in the bin.

luvstoquilt 01-13-2021 05:28 AM

Love your quilt and am an avid “scrapper”.

Great way to use up those scraps!

Love your scrappy quilt. Scrappy quilts is one of my favorite kinds of quilts. They always look so comfy and cozy

So very nice. Thank you for sharing.

Great scrappy!

aashley333 01-14-2021 05:21 AM

Love your quilt! I must confess that I did not save my scraps before finding this board. Never heard of a scrappy quilt. Now I have 2 boxes, full of scraps! I saved a copy of your quilt in my "pretty quilts" folder for inspiration. Someday I'll make a scrappy.

sash 01-14-2021 03:27 PM

My favorite kind of quilt. I have lots and lots of scraps and yes, they do seem to multiply.

JazzieJ 01-23-2021 08:14 AM

Awesome quilt!

MicheleC 01-28-2021 07:47 AM

Great scrappy quilt! The quilting is gorgeous.
