Very nice. I also love to make scrap quilts. Uses up some of the left over fabrics that you hate to throw out.

So I started one also. Now I have to admit that I love scrap quilts, and my joy is in the piecing and sewing the quilt tops (some people call them 'flimsies' before they are sandwiched and quilted). I have lots of flimsies hanging on my 2nd floor railing, I love them just as they are. Sometimes adding borders, sandwiching and quilting is not fun for me.

here is my string x quilt, inspired by Prairie Quilter

Your quilt is very pretty. I'm really starting to warm up to the "scrappy" quilts. I like the way yours is with the white separating the scrappy.

Very nice. I also loved that post and I do love your post. Scrappy quilts are fun!

That is yummy! So happy. I'm with you about not enjoying the quilting part as much. Sometimes they are so difficult to move around on the regular machine. I've never had anyone else quilt mine. They may not be professional-looking, but they are all my work.
