I showed a small part of this quilt previously. I made the scrap circles (coffee filters) than appliqued them onto a plain square and then sewed the squares together. I sashed the blocks with a black and white stripe sheet. I will show you the front and the back.

Nice idea! Looks good.

That is a fun looking quilt. Great job!

great idea, thanks for sharing

I love it! What a fun way to use up scraps :D:D:D

Beautiful!

Did U use the filters as a foundation & later remove the paper before appliquing? Neat idea! Thanks for sharing & wonderful way to use up scraps.

:thumbup: :thumbup:

Very nice - the stripes are a great contrast to the circles and bright colors of the plain blocks.

Very clever.

yes, I sprayed the filters with water to rip the paper off and then appliqued them..

Great job!

Pretty & Unique looking & great idea with the coffee filters!

very clever

Unique use of coffee filters. Your quilt is quite lovely!

Very clever..looks great!!

very unique :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Neat

Very cute quilt! It smiles!

I like! I like!

Neat idea! I had never heard of that before!

thanks everyone for looking and commenting. I wish I could say the coffee filters was an original idea but not.....got the idea from where?
why, Quilting Board of course :!: :!:
I like making things a little off-beat, thus the black and white stripes.

It's beautiful.

Your circles look great. Who knew--a coffee filter.

Great scrappy!!

I love your scrappy circle quilt with the stunning black and white strips sheet! Using the coffee filters would make the perfect circles! In art, people are drawn to circles...

Love your scrap quilt, so bright and cheerful, nice touch tied with the green thread. I love scrappy too!

very nice and colorful

Great new way to use scraps. And, I like the idea of using the bedsheet front and back. Thanks for sharing.

The back has an even more modern look; truly different.

Wonderful!!!!

Cute indeed.

I like the perfect circles. I use used dryer sheets for foundation, sewing scraps on never know how your "piece" will look. And for a circle I was using a saucer, trace around, cut out, seams in "bad place"
Coffee filters. I love it.
One other share...my husband says, "why do you keep those little pieces, they're trash, not good for anything. And why do you get "___" trash". My responce, her trash makes beautiful quilts (she maked boutique items and trashes small pieces of fabric, I love her trash its always fantastic fabrics.

Hi!I'm new, so you just sew onto the coffee filters and then you rip off the coffee filters like paper piecing? or you leave the filter paper on? thanks

you do the stitch and flip method onto the filters and then trim your piece then rip the filter paper off and that's it (I think that's it).... :) :)

Cool idea for using up scraps. I will have to try it!!!

So cute--love scrappy

What a great idea and good looking quilt.

great idea

I like it, .....looks great.

Looks nice. the stripes almost look like piano keys!
