scrappy square in square in square blocks
 

Well, I started to make the backing for my hippie love beads stack and whack that I posted a picture of last week. I had quite a bit of the sashing and setting fabrics leftover, and a bunch of little stacked squares from the stack and whack, so I decided to piece a few blocks to use on the backing. I was having such a good time making these blocks that I've ended up with enough to make another quilt top. That's a good thing, right? Still don't have the backing put together yet, maybe tonight!

Definitely a good thing :) I like your blocks!

Nice scrappy sampler quilt.

combination of color is playful ... this quilt will be beautiful!

So are you using the blocks for the back of the first quilt or making a new quilt top out of them? They are way cute. Peggy

I've made enough to do both, I had intended to make 8 pieced 10" blocks to intersperse with 10" squares for the pieced backing. I now have a total of 30 pieced blocks, so I should have enough to make both, and I do believe I'll turn out a few more before I'm done. I still have a little pile of scraps and 2" 4 patch blocks.

I love your blocks! How wonderful to make another top and still more scraps to go! I will have to rethink my leftover scraps instead of just bagging them!

That is so cute. I may have to start one.

You'll end up with 2 quilts in 1! I'm liking it a lot!

Very nice!!

Lucky you! With the fabric you bought for your Stack 'n Whack you got a two-fer! Isn't it great fun to create something extra with scraps! Love what you came up with. I absolutely love to work with scraps and so does my wallet! lol Thanks for sharing.

Aren't "leftovers" the best?!? LOL! This is another fabulous top... are you going to name it "Twofer"? LOL!

You have been busy. I've been thinking about doing a scrappy like this. It goes on my list. Need to finish some UFO's first.

Really nice!!!!

Very nice. Great way to use up scraps.

What a great way to use up scraps very nice!

That looks yummy! Reminds me of an ice cream shoppe. Nice!

Very nice, good way to use up scraps. I'm still trying to use up scraps from previous quilts.

Now that is fun. And the colors are so happy

That's going to be a fun top! Yes, a good thing! I like that it's not all the same square in a square in a square. With the scrappy look, this is perfectly mixed! Great job!

Two quilts for the price of one, and both will look so nice. Whats better than that? Thanks for sharing them with us.

I do this all the time. That's why I have so many quilt tops, and not so many completed quilts. Yours is very pretty.

Very cute idea.......good way to use up left over blocks

Love it, it is so lovely. Thanks for sharing.

Now I love this quilt; I love scrappies, and I like your design eye. Please share picture when it's finished, and thanks for sharing.

Nice!!! Great job.

I think it's great you had such a good time making these blocks!

It's coming along really great!

Yours is my favorite kind of quilt. Bright and sassy!!

I get such a 'kick' when someone is so excited about their quilt that they can't seem to stop.

Sew cute! Looks like fun!

A very creative and cheerful quilt. Love it. Thank you for sharing.:o

I love the different centers of the squares, and no two alike! Secondary quilts are the best kind! Almost free!

great job!!!

Isn't it grand when you have that bonus left at the end of the first project? Wonderful "leftovers!" It's looking good - yum, yum!

Funny how that happens..... your quilt is terrific.

your blocks are great,great colors.I need to see the quilt when it is done.

Oh, how fun! I love all the bright colors!
Such a happy quilt! :)
