It's Buggy Wheels. I went by the photo shown in Ninnie's posting "playing with HST", but she does give a pattern source.
Thank you for your encouraging comments; much appreciated. :)

You have made two wonderful quilts. I doubt if your stash even noticed.

WoW! What a beautiful quilt. I love that its reversable too.

Love your "quilts". Especially like the string side; I have a love of string quilts. Every time I see one I want to go get my bag of strings out and start sewing, but have too many other ufo's going on right now. Have made several, but given them all away. I want one for my very own. Beautiful job.

Such a great idea! I love scrap quilts, and you've really scored with this. I can't decide which side I like best!

Wow. There is nothing else to say. You have given me ideas for using up all those scraps that have taken over my world.

northern lass 09-16-2012 07:53 AM

Absolutely gorgeous quilt. Fabulous way to use up scraps

kristen0112 09-16-2012 07:59 AM

Great quilts!

BellaBoo 09-16-2012 08:27 AM

Stunning! You should be very proud. Imagine if you had to go buy fabric to make this quilt? Scraps are money in your pocket.

Sarah in Brooklyn 09-16-2012 08:31 AM

Amazing! I hope I have enough scraps someday to do that!

quilter1430 09-16-2012 10:01 AM

What a masterpiece!!! Just beautiful!!!!

Ladibug 09-16-2012 06:32 PM

I am new here and to quilting. All I can do is aspire to ever be so good as to do this. I don't understand how you QAYG much less join it with two different strippings. I am sure a rain if I stick with this site tho I will learn how.:) Great job Lady!!!

deedum 09-16-2012 06:34 PM

What a fabulous quilt! Maybe there is hope for my two overstuffed bags of scraps yet!

Quilter Jane 09-16-2012 07:02 PM

That is absolutely brilliant!!! I LOVE it! Wonderful!

Your arrangement of lights and darks on the string block side of the quilt is just gorgeous. Both sides are spectacular.

postal packin' mama 09-16-2012 11:48 PM

Thank you ALL so much for your encouraging comments. I really appreciate your input. The scraps just keep multiplying - on their own, it seems!

LoisM 10-01-2012 10:10 PM

This reversible quilt is simply magnificent! I can only imagine how HEAVY it is. What an amazing job!

Fuzzykittenbutt 10-02-2012 01:10 AM

stunning! I love reversible quilts and yours is great...and to top it off, made only with scraps...WoW!

key4unc 10-02-2012 01:33 AM

Both sides are just beautiful. I get you got a little tired of making HSTs--but the effort was well worth it.

QM 10-02-2012 01:39 AM

I like goth sides. Great job.

piepatch 10-02-2012 01:43 AM

What a pretty, colorful, lively quilt! It adds such charm and life to the room......on either side! I would be hard pressed to decide which side to leave up everyday.:o

amh 10-25-2012 09:59 AM
