"scraps of love"

I made this from scraps left over from previous quilts....it is a history of my past year! It fits over the head of my recliner. It has feather stitch for quilting and the binding.

Love the colors. Good way to use up your scraps.

I want to make a scrappy quilt with strips! I like yours!

That is lovely and so scrappy, a great history for you. I am mostly a scrap quilter, even if it is a planned one (like many scraps of red and blue) and so is my mom. When we finish one(mostly she finishes, mine end up as UFOs, we always look at the scraps and say things like "boy, we've used that print in a lot of quilts" and "I'm sorry that it's the last of that one", etc. Since we both use out of the same stash a lot, I can look at mine and see pieces that was in hers. When I haven't seen her for a week or so, I look at the scraps in my quilts, because some of them remind me of her.

I like this--especially the mitered seam joinings--really adds a special touch to the quilt.

Nice scrappy. Hope it keeps you warm with all the warm memories.

I love it, I've got some scraps similar to those and now I know what to do with them.

dltaylor 11-08-2011 12:29 PM

Way cool!! I have a bag of scraps that I have been debating rather to list them as a free donation or use them for something.

I've made a couple Patch-work quilts with "memory" fabric. Memory fabric is fabric that was used for something else; i.e., an apron, a pair of curtains, a skirt, a pillow, a dress. My grands love to tell me the memory of fabrics that they recognize. I love you "scraps of love" name and pattern. Thanks for sharing such a great idea and quilt.

Beautiful job.

Meme2six 11-08-2011 02:27 PM

What a cool way to keep something close at hand that reminds you of what you did the past year. I'm going to borrow this idea if you don't mind :)
