I just put the last border on a scrappy quilt that I made for my friend. She bought the fabric and selected the pattern. We have both been anxious to see what it would end up looking like, as neither of us is good at visualizing what a finished product might look like.

I am very pleased with it, even though scrappy quilts are not my preferred quilts. I lean toward two or three colors or shades of two or three colors.

Still, I think it looks good. If you have been one who encouraged me that it would turn out okay, thank you so much. I depend on you all to help me "see" what I can't.

I have just emailed my friend a picture. (She is in OK and I am in TX.) I hope she likes what she sees. The last picture I sent her didn't have the borders on.

It turned out great. I like it a lot.

I like that. It's kind of an "organized" scrppy look!

It looks great! She will love it!

Very nice and neat looking and great colors.

That turned out beautifully! The borders make it!
Congrats!

great job, I especially like your design, a little different from the traditional rail fence,your choice of fabric colors make it pop, well done...

looks nice

I really like the white framing for the colored units. Sets them off nicely.

Nice choice of fabrics for the borders, too.

I agree...the white really does make them stand out. :) Great job on it!!!

Your controlled scrappy turned out great ... that border adds the right touch......she should have no problems lovin' it...

Love all the colors and the borders are great.

It is gorgeous. The scraps look good together

BEAUTIFUL!!! GREAT JOB ON A SCRAPPY

Such a pretty scrappy quilt!

Well, I got an email from my friend and she likes the final outcome. (Thank goodness...) On to sandwich it next. I really don't like the backing she selected, but it is her quilt. :)

Pretty.

I love your scrappy quilt. You did great making it.

Very pretty

love it!

Glad you're happy with it now. I think it started out really nice and ended up wonderful.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I am happy with it, and so is my friend. I just got an email from her...another 100+ day in central OK, she said, and the only thing cool was the picture of her quilt.

Nice to hear, especially since our local weatherman is counting the days over 100 we have had so far...43. Need lots of cool quilts!!

Well, I LIKE it very much! Good job.

Love scrappy!!!

It looks good

Looking good to me. She'll love it!
