Pastel scrapy quilt
2 Attachment(s)
This quilt was made from scraps from 2 other quilts! This summer I decided that as each project was completed, the left over scraps had to be cut and organized. First I cut 5 " sqs(charms), then 2 1/2" strips(jelly rolls), then 2 1/2" sqs from smaller pieces. I also cut 1 1/2" strips or sqs for a postage stamp quilt. I love not having all those pieces scattered all over and it is so easy to start a scrap project.

I love how the use of florals, plaids, and tones on tones, all come together to make such a beautiful quilt. I want to do a quilt with plaids and this shows how they can work with other designs. And I love your organization of left overs. That I should be so organized. I am always just too anxious to get on to the next project. May have to slow down and try that. Great hint

|
It turned out wonderful. Nice job. Just goes to show what you can do with a few scraps.
|
Very nice job!

What a lovely combination of fabrics. A real gem of a quilt.

I love it! Wow you are REALLY organized...I am jealous!
|
It looks great!

What a great idea. I would like to get that organized which would pay off in the long run as your lovely quilt proves!! Great job!
|
Your quilt is beautiful. I like to manage my scraps to. After they are cut into usable blocks I forget about them. But that nagging pile of scraps to cut into block haunts me until I get it done. I love it when I can just go to my bins of cut pieces and start sewing.
|
Very pretty quilt!
|
I try to cut strips from scraps, so i will have a good selection when I start my scrappy quilt.
|
Such a beautiful and cheery quilt!! I love these colors together!! I keep seeing quilts like these and my list of "to do's' gets longer and longer...........

Great job!

Very nice. I started organizing my scraps last night. Hope my project comes out as nice as yours!
|
I love the idea of dealing with scraps as you get them, hope I will learn to do that.
|
Love the colors!
|
Beautiful! Love the colors and the variety. I love a 'bricks' pattern also -- takes the focus off of seam matching!
But I bet you still have lots of scraps left!! |
Pretty colors!
|
Great use of scraps :)

Gorgeous! Scrappy quilts are my favorites.
|
I just love the colors. Good job!
|
Great quilt!

I can't resist a scrappy quilt! So pretty! Great colors & the florals & plaids play so well together. Waste not, just make another quilt! Fab job!
