I love scrappy too--I'm working on 3 right now. A friend let me get in her scraps and take what I wanted. It was good to have different fabric in it. Love it!!!

Is that a wrought iron bed? King size? Wow, that quilt is at home on a bed like that. Beautiful

It is a wrought iron bed but not old. It is one of those electric jobs, each side can be raised/lowered/massage. With foam matress and remote control too. I think it's the most comfortable bed in the world!

I had a scrappy quilt from my childrens grandmother. She made it out of her old dresses and aprons. Stupid, poke me in the eye stupid, me sold it at a garage sale when the kids were small as the colors were not what I was into. ARGH!!! You brought back a fond memory. Sometimes its not so much the finished product as it is the effort and love that went into it. As those who quilt know there is a whole lot of LOVE into the work that it requires to make something. You just can't buy that.

Love those scrappies. Best quilts on earth, and yours looks so homey and cuddly.

What a lovely quilt! It takes me back to my childhood and the quilts I slept under at my grandparents house.

I love looking at (and sometimes even making) all the beautiful quilts with all the intricate patterns, but yours is my kind of quilt! I love it!

mummadee 09-29-2011 04:15 AM

I missed the puppy, and had to go back to see her, was focused on the great quilt.

hmarienc 09-29-2011 04:17 AM

The quilt is wonderful. It brings back memories for me--my grandmother helped me make a single bed quilt like this when I was a young girl.

hcarpanini 09-29-2011 04:17 AM

Very nice!

MargeD 09-29-2011 04:39 AM

Very nice and it appears it has the stamp of approval from your puppy.

Lucy90 09-29-2011 04:40 AM

Love your quilt

doglover 09-29-2011 04:42 AM

Very beautiful. Especially love the black and white, third pillow you have up there with the two ears and cute little nose. real cute. what's the name.
Love the way your colors flow together. You did a wonderful job on this quilt. when I see other scrappy quilts, It makes it want to make one but I never seem to get the color flow that I see in other quilts like yours. what a tallent you have. Maybe if I had a black and white pillow to decorate with, hint-hint.
congrats.
doglover.

This quilt should be posted on the thread "Scrappy Quilt Show Right Here" in the "pictures" section of the QB. You will be amazed at that thread; it is awesome and your beautiful scrappy deserves to be there. I hope everyone who reads this will take a look at it and put a picture of their's to add to the thread. I think it is already over 30 pages long :) :), several hours of complete bliss and inspiration looking at them. :) :)

Love it. My favorite style.

My kind of scrappy. Love it!

TacoMama 09-29-2011 05:17 AM

Love it. This is what people used to do - use what they had because they didn't have the money to buy fabrics just for quilts. Reminds me of days gone by.
