I got the blocks put together for a queen sized top.All I kept doing was looking at the leftover scraps from them.Should I put the blocks together or play with the scraps.Well I played with the scraps,lol.1st pic is of the blocks still waiting,lol.The left overs made a baby sized top.

Nope , I don't see a problem- Sometimes girls just wanna have fun ! LOL

By the way cute quilt and can't wait to see the blocks together :)

joyful1 04-27-2012 05:36 AM

Well, you sure put those scrapes to good use.

karenpatrick 04-27-2012 05:38 AM

Nice. What fabric line is that?

Painiacs 04-27-2012 05:39 AM

That is the cutest thing!!!

I find that the suspense of the unknown and the intregue when working with scraps is the best part. So I don't think you have a problem at all . If you do... we both need help. FYI its beautiful, love the colors

When fabric talks to you, you just gotta listen! Great job on the darling baby quilt!

Elainequilts 04-27-2012 05:44 AM

I would say you are very frugally creative, using up scraps and saving storage!!! Great job and an inspiration to me.

Tartan 04-27-2012 05:46 AM

The scraps are so pretty, who could resist?

pls1946 04-27-2012 05:47 AM

Great job on the use of left-overs!!

nycbgirl 04-27-2012 05:51 AM

I really like that baby blanket......

Jingle 04-27-2012 05:52 AM

Very pretty baby quilt. I am going to start using my scraps as soon as I get enough to work with. I have made 4 quilt out of scraps I had saved up, working on one now and will have enough for another quilt. Good for you to use them now.
You do wonderful work, pretty colors.

I'd rather scrap than do something structured...is it a character flaw or a creative calling!!??

crafty pat 04-27-2012 05:57 AM

That turned out so pretty, scraps can be so much fun.

QuiltnLady1 04-27-2012 05:57 AM

Great use of scraps!! I find that when I do a scrap project my scraps multiply signifincantly.

SoozeeDoozee 04-27-2012 05:59 AM

Sweet baby size and lovely fabrics.

Neesie 04-27-2012 06:00 AM

I LOVE the baby quilt . . . and can't wait, to see the mama quilt!!!

barny 04-27-2012 06:05 AM

That is just beautiful fabric. I love it. Cutest baby quilt. Will be a beautiful biggy too.

mighty 04-27-2012 06:31 AM

Great job!!!

cjackaitlin 04-27-2012 06:39 AM

Who could help but play with these scraps, they are sew cute, as is the baby quilt. Can't wait for the bigone. Thanks for sharing.

oma66 04-27-2012 06:58 AM

Oh, I can understand the temptation to see what can be done with scraps and you did a fantastic job of creating something wonderful from yours. It is precious and I can hardly wait to see the large quilt. Great job!

red-warrior 04-27-2012 07:40 AM

Really like your baby quilt and it does not look like scraps!

wolph33 04-27-2012 07:50 AM

thanks you every one for the kind words.to me anything that does not fit the sizes I am working with is a scrap,lol.

sewmorethings 04-27-2012 09:00 AM

What a fun quilt, what's the problem??????????

MaryMo 04-27-2012 09:09 AM

I agree with many here ... I don't see any problems. ... love the colorful nature of both quilts! and looking forward to the big quilt.

Rose S. 04-27-2012 09:11 AM

You are just a true quilter...too many things to do and too little time. We can't help but get detoured.

cleodaisy 04-27-2012 10:52 AM

That is the kind of problem which is fun to have. I am holding my breath for the large version.

I think after all the hard work assembling the blocks, you deserved a little "play" time! The scraps made a great "little" quilt! Thanks for sharing.

Sandee 04-27-2012 11:05 AM

Very pretty! Also, I could have cryed that I missed your last fabric sale....BOO HOO!

barri1 04-27-2012 11:16 AM

Waste not, want not.. I hate not using scraps.. I just about use all, unless I don't like the quality, and then I use that fabricfor practice..

It's adorable, isn't it? I wonder what that pattern's called? Whatever it's "real name", I call it darling!

The more I look at it, the more I love it! And I REALLY love the fabric & wonder what it is, too...

I call it "the puppy/butterfly situation". My puppy dog (yes, the lovable Leo) will be playing, playing, playing with something, a butterfly or something will happen by & swish! He's off after it & doesn't even remember what he was doing before... LOL! Anybody experienced this?

burchquilts 04-27-2012 11:39 AM

To paraphrase a rapper (The Notorious B.I.G. maybe?) ---> mo' fabric, mo' problems... LOL! But these are the kind of problems I like!

justme 04-27-2012 11:48 AM

Those scraps are very pretty! Very soft looking quilt.

BizzieLizzie 04-27-2012 11:52 AM

:D :D :D Lovely little quilt!! All perfectly normal. That's how we have UFOs! Start on one and diversify!! Love your fabric choices! Best wishes.

hperttula123 04-27-2012 01:29 PM

lol....that would be a good problem to have. At least you are accomplishing something. Beautiful!!!

Blinkokr 04-27-2012 01:54 PM

Just lovely, great job and thank you for sharing, don't see a problem
Have a Blessed day
