They can also be called crumb quilts....but they are always so friendly...probably my favorite quilt and when you don't feel like doing fussy quilting the can just be the answer..Happy Quilting:thumbup:

I love the scrappies, it should turn out pretty.

looks like FUN....do it by hand...

I was "playing" in my little 2.5" squares and crumbs yesterday....this is a great system and I love your dryer idea!

What a wonderful idea of using big skirts for fabric. I haunt Goodwill for fabric too, and it never occurred to me to look at the clothing. I can't wait to see how your finished quilt comes out. Have fun!

sounds like lots of fun. I love scrappy quilts.

Ohh that is going to be great. Keep up the cutting and make sure you post pics.

Should be great fun! Love the scrappys .

If you keep a pic of your favorite scrappy you want to make in front of you, you will stay more focused and less apt to run off on another idea. Hope that works for you! I think if you are passionate of what you want to make, nothing else you see will suit you until your scrappy is done! Best of luck to you with your projects!

This pic is appealing to me and right up my alley! What fun that will be diving into that batch of squares and creating something extraordinary! Have fun with it! Oh, be sure and post pics when you're done! We'd love to see it!

Looks like an Irish Chain coming to me!

This is truly a scrap quilt the way your are collecting and reusing fabrics. That is fabulous. I love to make scrap quilts. I will save scraps that others would throw away. I have been known to pull fabric out of the trash. I call these quilts my "trash quilts", but to me they are a treasure. I, however, use all my quilts and enjoy them. The only time I would have a tough time using them is if they were all hand appliqued/quilted, then I would have to use them a little more sparingly.

Looking forward to seeing what you will create with those!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]283397[/ATTACH]Love scrappy.You have a nice collection. here is one I just finished, made from all recycled fabric. Plain and simple:thumbup: Nothing fancy

I have done the same thing with scraps, 2 1/2" squares. I Have probably 20 random rows together. It is like a trip down memory land whenever I work on it. Someday... I thought this would use up my scraps. As I look at it not it could be rather long. maybe a football field if I use all my scraps. lol

Looks like SOOOO much fun!! Can't wait to see finished product... and thanks for the "mixing-it-up" tip, too!!

Scrappys are my favorite

I love scrappy quilts!!! Do you know what you're going to do with them? I have a basket under a table that I throw scraps into and every once in awhile I stack them in the Accucut and make squares out of them.

love scrappy cant wait to see what you do have fun

I've also been haunting Goodwills lately. Last week I picked up five "big" skirts and after washing, pressing and cutting into pieces (no squares yet!), wound up with about Six yards of fabric for $5.00! I love the tiered, batik skirts made in the Far East -- three or four coordinating fabrics, at least a quarter yard each. Awesome!

What an awesome idea regarding the cooler. Now I know what to do with the one I have. Can't wait to see what your scrappy quilt will look like. Bet it will be awesome. Thanks for the tip.

What a fun pile of scraps to create a quilt with. Have fun and please post pics when you can.

looking forward to seeing you quilt...........................

Looks like a lot of nice fabrics. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

I pretty much only make scrappy quilts. They are fun. I would get so bored with just 2 or 3 fabrics. Enjoy!

WOW Lovely fabric

Thats how I made one earlier in the year, and I made myself use whatever I picked up, no looking as I was choosing a fabric. Talking about flying blind! But It turned out really well. Good luck with your quilt! Cant wait to see what you come up with, I love scrappy!

KOOL! Love those scrappy quilts!

I cant wait to see it! I love scrappy quilts.

I love it! I just finished a scrappy 4" square top and I love the scrappy look.

What a wonderful idea - have fun putting all those together and share a picture of the finished quilt.

I will be a Beauty. J J

I love scrappy with a kazillion different fabrics ... you will have a wonderful quilt!

I love your idea and yes, I love scrappy quilts.

can't wait to see the end results! I love scrappies myself! Not sure I want to cut 2.5" squares, a bit small for me but I will wait and see what you produce. Love your bin of scraps!

The dryer......what a wonderful idea for mixing your fabrics. Bet I'm gonna copy that one! Thanks.

What a wonderful idea to mix it up. Can wait to see the end product! :)

post a photo when you are done, I have baskets full of scraps I need inspiration!

Looks like a "Candy Store" to me........... Ohhhh the FUN that awaits !!! :) Great idea, using the cooler !! Now... don't forget to show us the finished quilt!!

Oh my goodness, I can't wait to see it finished. Thanks for sharing and be sure to post pictures of the completed project.
