Happy Scrappy
 
2 Attachment(s)
Trying to use up scraps. At I thought this was ugly but now it is Happy Scrappy. I like better now that it is finished. All scraps, all hand done. Size is about 56 x 60. 80/20 batting.

Love your use of scraps. You had me until I read it was all hand done. Wow. Couldn't imagine not using a sewing machine!

QuiltnNan 03-25-2019 03:28 AM

yes, very happy, nicely done

SillySusan 03-25-2019 03:40 AM

Wow! What a wonderful guilt!! So colorful and so well done! It would have taken me 100 years to do this... and be well worth it!!

Really pretty quilt. I love the black separation sashing & the scrappy binding.

QuiltMom2 03-25-2019 03:46 AM

I like your backing too. Your hand quilting is lovely on that.

really nice scrappy and hand done wow. I couldn't have done that with out machine quilting. But I love to do scrappy, lots of leader and enders. I hate hand work. I even machine my bindings.

Scrappy is not my favorite, but this one is an exception!!! Great quilt!!!

Tartan 03-25-2019 03:06 PM

Cute scrappy!

BSKTLOFR-QUILTER 03-25-2019 03:20 PM

Lovely quilt. In awe of hand quilters.

JJBlaine 03-25-2019 03:40 PM

I am amazed that you did this all by hand. I love how scrappies can look not-so-great as they are being pieced, yet somehow, almost like magic, once they are all put together, they look awesome.

Jingle 03-25-2019 03:53 PM

Turned out beautifully.

Boston1954 03-25-2019 04:11 PM

I applaud anyone who pieces by hand. That is one terrific job. Thanks so much for showing us.

Quiltah Mama 03-25-2019 04:30 PM

What a lovely happy scrappy!!!! Your work and quilting are fantastic.

redquilter 03-25-2019 05:21 PM

I like that a lot. Great use of scraps.

cashs_mom 03-25-2019 06:23 PM

Oh, that's so nice. I love it! And all hand done. Wow!

copycat 03-26-2019 01:24 AM

I like how you used the dark sash to give your eye a place to rest. Did you plan the color placement or just grab a 4 patch and sew? I love your scrappy binding. Congrats on your beautiful quilt! The name, Happy Scrappy fits! :)

sinceresissy 03-26-2019 03:35 AM

Copycat - At first I was just going to grab and sew but I ended up finding two colors that I thought looked nice together and sew them up in a four patch - two squares light x two squares darker then I tried not to put too many of same color close together. It's like working a puzzle.

coopah 03-26-2019 03:56 AM

Nice,comfortable looking quilt. The hand-quilting will make it a snuggler!

Nita 03-26-2019 04:23 AM

I hope the quilters in Fabric Moratorium" see this awesome quilt. A great way to use up small cuts of fabric in our stash. As I have often admitted to this board, I am not a big fan of scrappy quilts ... just too busy for my liking. But every once in awhile someone posts a scrappy that I really like and this quilt is definitely one of them. The black sashing makes all the difference in the world.
Oh, and kudos to you for doing this by hand!!!

Mary Christine 03-26-2019 06:33 AM

What a great scrappy!:thumbup:

B e a u t i f u l!!!!!

I love the amount of quilting you have done. Most of the time, handquilters do a minimal amount. This looks great and will hold up through many years. Great job.

sue.ross.8782 03-26-2019 09:48 AM

Great uses of scraps. It's a winner!:thumbup:

Rose_P 03-26-2019 12:24 PM

Very happy, indeed! I love the way you arranged all the different colors.

ccthomas 03-26-2019 04:28 PM

Nice scrappy quilt.
