A scrap quilt for my GS in NH. Using anything and everything in this
quilt which he could probably use now with all the snow and no power.
Enjoy

Great use of all those small strips ! He will love it and if this early storm is any indication of the winter to come he will certainly make use of it .

Great job... I love scrap quilts!

Nice quilt and very masculine, too. Great way to use up quite a lot of scrap material. Good job.

it will be great. love what you have done so far.

Nice. I am sure he will love it. I like working on the scrappy quilts between other quilts. Before you know it, you have enough blocks to put one together.

Great job!!

I really like your quilt, nice having it on the slant like that. I love scrap quilts.

I think it is very nice!!! I am working on one right now, too, but I don't have such rich colors!! Lucky GS!!

I am beginning to appreciate these string quilts more and more and I blast through my scraps cutting away ... and holding onto those thinner strips for just this purpose. Our guild's community service will get a lot more from me this next year because of it.

Beautiful job! He'll love it!

Great looking quilt!

Marilynsue 11-05-2011 03:03 PM

That is going on my "to do" list. Really is sharp!

Kathy T. 11-05-2011 03:07 PM

Great use of scraps ... looks like it will be very huggable.

I love scrap quilts! Lovely!

jdiane318 11-05-2011 04:28 PM

Scrappy is always the most beautiful look for a quilt. Love the rectangle pattern.

bjchad 11-05-2011 04:32 PM

Really pretty. That type is on my quilt bucket list.

Cattyqwltr 11-05-2011 04:33 PM

Love it - I prefer scrappy quilts myself - it will be well loved and appreciated.

SuziC 11-05-2011 04:36 PM

Very pretty, he will get some good use out of it. Great job.

That's great looking. Good use of your scraps.

Good-looking scrappy quilt. That's another item on my to-do list.

Audrey 11-05-2011 06:53 PM

What size blocks are they? Are you sewing them to a backing?

BLAP 11-05-2011 07:00 PM

Love all the colors

SandyinZ4 11-05-2011 07:02 PM

Your string/scrappy quilt is great. I am sure he will love it when he gets it, for now and all the future blizzards and no power. Will you do the back in flannel or cotton?

Matilda 11-05-2011 07:28 PM

Very pretty!!

Hopefully his power is back on...I have been amazed on how many were still out on Friday at work . We rec'd our power back on Wednesday night. Thankfully we did have a generator. it has been crazy the last few years! You GS will love it...it looks wonderful and I am sure it will keep him warm all winter long.

moreland 11-06-2011 06:21 AM

Like your quilt. This is my favorite "I don't really have to think about it" block--I often make them when I want to watch TV and sew at the same time! I do mine on light weight muslin foundations.

Love your scrappy quilt. I am pretty darn old and like to do fun stuff, not complicated just fun.
I started following this board 2 years ago when I got the idea to start sewing. Learned so much from all of you, I am doing a pretty good job now. So many ideas and lessons.
Thanks from oldpickles
Now I have to find out how to send this message to you.
