My First Scrappy
 
1 Attachment(s)
Usually I'm pretty controlled when making a quilt, so doing this was quite a departure for me!
I was sick from work for a few days and had nothing to work on...looked at all those blues and reds in my stash and decided to just go for it. Must say, it was kind of fun to cut loose a bit. :o

I will free motion this one and it will go to Project Linus as a "Tween" size.

very nice job looks great!!!

Nicely done. Have you thought of crosshatching this quilt. The only thing you will need to mark is the border. I use a Hera marker by Clover to mark my crosshatching lines.

Might be fun to try.

Good job on stepping outside of your comfort zone with this project. It's nice to "stretch" sometimes. I really like the color combination.

Lovely scrappy.

Nice scrappy quilt for a 'tween'. Linus projects is such a worthy outreach. I do think you are adventurous in projects you choose. I admire your work and willingness to share. I second the notion of crosshatching for the quilt. It makes for a lovely finish.

Looks great, and the red trim makes it so rich looking. Some dramatic teenager will just love it!!

twinkie 04-06-2016 04:07 AM

Someone will be really thrilled with this one. Thank you for the giving heart.

LindaJ 04-06-2016 04:33 AM

trolleystation 04-06-2016 06:18 AM

I like it.

carolynjo 04-06-2016 06:31 AM

How nice and quite calming. Just the thing for a "tween" quilt.

QuiltNama 04-06-2016 07:45 AM

Nice color choices, sometimes we surprise ourselves when we let go a little. Keep up the good work.

Annz 04-06-2016 01:07 PM

Great fabric together.

MargeD 04-06-2016 01:10 PM

Very nice, and I love the colors. You're right, every once in a while, it's nice to depart from our "usual" quilting projects and just do one for fun.

Sondi 04-06-2016 01:15 PM
