really scrappy quilt
 

I love the radianting fans quilting! Did you do it FMQ? Would love to know how. I love scrappy quilts so it is a winner to me!

The fact that you used only strips and didn't "regulate" them comes out as a organized whole of a quilt! It is really a nice quilt! I understand the hesitation of whether you like it or not, but leave it around on the back of a chair on someplace for a few days and I bet you'll really come to like it. It harks back to what quilts started out being: practicality turned into beauty!

especially since you quilted it with a traditional pattern, the Babtist Fan. Very nice!

nicely done... i like the baptist fan quilting

Terrific scrappy! It will grow on you! The quilting is lovely too.

I love scrappy quilts and yours is outstanding ... perfect for a lap quilt. Thanks for sharing.

Very pretty and quilting also. It is amazing no matter how many scraps you have it seems impossible to use them up. I made seven scrappy quilts and still had a ton left.

Nice use of scraps! Make sure you post it in the scrappy quilt show here on the board.

ohh-I like it.Scrappys are always awesome.

I just love scrappies. They are amazing and all look so good - no matter what combo is used. Great job.

It looks wonderful to me--I love scrappy quilts! I love the quilting--I must learn to do the Baptist Fans. Did you machine quilt it or are they hand quilted--I can't tell from the photo.

Beautiful scrappy and quilting!

well being a scrappy p[erson i think you did a nice job and nice quilting

I think it's great! I love scrappy. Nice job of quilting too.

Looks great!!

Very nice quilting

Love the quilting and all scrappies are great!!

I love it. Looking at it reminds me of buildings=skyscrapers in a big city. I think that you will like it in time.

Your scrappy quilt is terrific. It looks like one that will be used and loved. The quilting is wonderful.

Just ooohing and aaahing here!!!!

I like it. It has a sort of a modern look, kind of looks like a city scape.

no i love it! i think its great! if it needs a home please let me know!

It is really pretty!

I think it's great! Sometimes we fret and over think these quilts. Our great-grandmas didn't have time for that. Have scraps, make a quilt, get it on a bed and keep a body warm. Yours has the bonus of being lovely. It's a keeper.

What's not to like?? It's perfect! Great job.

It is so pretty.

awesome scrappy

scrap quilts are wonderful, no two alike. And your quilting is terrific.

I personally think it came out great! Great use of scraps.

I want to try this method of scrappy quilting but......I just have to have control over the placement....I am so NOT a random type person...LOL

Love your quilt and the scrappiness of it!

Nicely done...

Very lovely!

I think it's very nice! I just love scrappy quilts! :)

I love it , and the fan design.

I agree the fan quilting really sets it off. Scrap quilts are alway welcome as utility quilts ready to use.

Beautiful quilting! Scrappy's are always pretty!

I didn't go through all the posts, but I suspect what you are finding you don't like is the white border. The border with the batting around it looks like too much white to balance. I have a feeling that is partly an optical issue. The batting and the border makes the white come forward while the interior recedes. After you cut off the extra batting try laying the quilt on a dark color and see if it is more to your liking. If you like it then, success! If not you could try Sawtooth triangles--(I think that is what they are called) where you take a square and fold it into quarters (triangles). Anyway, this could be a way to include the scrappy into the border or just around the edge of the quilt.

You did a great job! Very pretty!A great use of scraps!
