Reconsidering the value of my small scraps!

I love this pattern. With the price of fabric these days, I tend to follow the "waste not, want not" philosophy!! Of course, Inspector couldn't wait for 30 seconds!

That is beautiful!! How long did it take you to make? How are you going to quilt it?

Great design using wonderful colors! I like pinwheels and stars so this has to be a favorite.

That's a gorgeous quilt! Really, REALLY pretty. I love the purple background and all those bright scraps. Pinwheels are among my favorites.

Lori, I think it was called "Sparkling Star" but I'm really not sure. I saw the pattern in a magazine a long time ago. These blocks have actually been sitting around for years, and I'm finally on a mission to finish up the ridiculous number of UFO's I have laying around.

When you see this you don't see "little scraps" just stunning quilt! This quilt represents the true spirit of quilting....beauty from little pieces others may overlook. Thanks for sharing and keeping us all inspired.

I love it!!! Great pattern. The Inspector approves it. Beautiful!!!

justflyingin 09-01-2013 09:33 PM

It's gorgeous and one of the few quilts involving dozens of half square triangles that makes me want to do one! (I really don't enjoy triangles!)

daisydebby 09-01-2013 09:34 PM

Just beautiful:)

dunster 09-01-2013 10:04 PM

Wow, I love that design, and the dark background really makes the stars pop.

What an accomplishment! Job well done.

Jackie Spencer 09-02-2013 05:57 AM

Oh My, That is gorgeous, and your piecing is perfect. Love your color choices. Don't you just love scrap quilts!! Some quilters really have a knack for using up scraps, I have to say your one of them!

DebraK 09-02-2013 06:08 AM

You paid for every inch of the fabric, and look how those little scrappy inches multiplied in beauty. Marvelous quilt.

MamaBear61 09-02-2013 06:27 AM

That is lovely. I found the pattern under the name "twinkling star". What a great scappy pattern, thanks for sharing.

luvstoquilt301 09-02-2013 06:38 AM

I think the blocks are just Birds In The Air----set in a spectacular way. Beautiful.

mighty 09-02-2013 07:02 AM

Beautiful quilt and inspector!!!!!

catladyquilts 09-02-2013 07:39 AM

I love the dark background, it really makes the pieces pop. If your inspector couldn't wait 30 seconds, it means it is already accepted and theirs now.

Christine- 09-02-2013 07:43 AM

It's beautiful!! Love the colors! I have an inspector, too.
