Scrappy Quilt
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]584641[/ATTACH]
I recently acquired a die that cuts rectangles 2 x 3 1/2 inches. I reduced my scrap bag considerably by cutting for a week, took my time. I chained and chained and pressed and pined and chained again. This went on for another week. The borders were inspired by something I saw on Pinterest, so the black and white checked fabric. The outer border is actually blue, but looks gray in this photo. The top measures 80 X 102. Today, I felt like I accomplished something big.

Wow! All that work and time really paid off. It’s beautiful!

Great use of scraps. Lovely quilt.

You did accomplish something big. and it is gorgeous! And I bet your scrap bucket is way, way down.

nicely done

I Love it. The checker board border was inspired!

It is a great accomplishment! Love the border too!

Wow! A win-win. Scrap pile reduced, stunning quilt made. It is so cheerful. I really like that checkered border-it just is perfect. Great job.

This is so very pretty...I really love this....very beautiful. Congratulations.

Great scrap usage. Looks like a big pile of Legos. Good job.

It's a very pretty quilt. All your work really shows in your quilt. I love scrappy quilts.

slow and steady wins the race! Love your scrappy!

That is gorgeous, Luci. You have been one busy lady!

Now that's a scrappy!! That needs to be shown someplace to help define persistence.

Wow that looks great, made me wonder what my scraps of fabric would look like? Thanks for the inspiration.

You did accomplish something big. That's a gorgeous quilt. Love the checkerboard border.

Very big accomplishment that turned out great!~!!!

Just look at all that scrappy goodness! It's a great top!

Oh, wow, that is really nice!! I love scrappy quilts.

Yes you accomplished something big! Very nice scrappy.

I love this quilt and all the bright colours too. Thank you for sharing.

I'd say you did indeed accomplish something big. The b/w border around the edge was a great choice, too, in my estimation. You can pat yourself on the back for this one and ENJOY!

That is a big accomplishment. Excellent work. It turned out very nice.

Great scrappy and you did a wonderful job on it. Glad you used up a lot of scraps-they seem to multiply while we sleep.

love your scrappy quilt

Beautiful quilt. I am working with bigger scraps. Maybe if I ever get to the smaller ones I will remember to use them like that.

I think scrappy quilts are beautiful

Terrific! The colors are just so playful together. And it's a huge accomplishment! Love the black n white border.

Such a colorful scrappy! Well done! A great pattern to use up a bunch of the smaller scraps~ :)

Good job!!

Super Scrappy. You did a wonderful job. I love it. BrendaK

Awesome scrappy!!! Lot of work but amazing results!

Wow...quite an undertaking with all of those little scraps but it turned out wonderfully. Great job.

If everyone on this board would take the time and energy that you did in making this quilt, our scrap pile would dwindle down to nothing. Bravo...well done!

WOW! You really did do something big! Your stick-to-it-iveness is wonderful and amazing. What a nice quilt that’s going to be. The checkered border is perfect!

What an awesome quilt you created with all your lovely scraps. The checker border is just adds to the happiness this quilt owns.
peace

Love your quilt and your border is perfect. I have that die and lots of scraps - looks like another quilt for the list.

Looks great, and thanks for the scrappy quilt idea.

Congrats on getting so much done. That is going to look spectacular on your bed.

That's just awesome Luci! What a great way to use up your scraps.
Is it an Acuquilt die?
