Saturday I watched a gal do a neat block with scraps. She took a square. added strips around it to frame it, then layed a bigger template down and cut at an angel. She said you can get different looks by just turning the template.
I tried 4 blocks. Do they look ok? be honest please. :D Should I keep going? :?:

Absolutely, keep going. That will look great.

I like them!!! Looks like fun. A good way to use up scraps?

I think they look fun. I might set them with a solid sashing if they were mine... just to let each shine. But it you want a crazy quilt look then setting them next to each other will do that. I LOVE scrappy looking quilts. They're interesting!

I've seen several patterns like that in my online shopping and in magazines. I liked it best with sashing between. Great way to use up scraps!

Wonderful. I love the fact that you don't need to be worried about measurements. Keep going

I think they look great. I make alot of scrap quilts. I am horrible at color coordinating fabric. With scrap quilts you don't have to worry about it. lol

Wow Bev! Keep going!!!

whew! they are so easy its not even funny. thanks dearheart

nice thing is even if the scrap is small, i just scoot the template over a bit. easy peasy :D

They look great!! Absolutly...keep going!

THANKS dearheart. The fun thing is ya never know how each one is gonna look. and they are not all the same. I wanted to just try a few to see if I could do it. Once I get a bunch made and decide on the layout, I'll think of sashing , Right now I'm just having fun that I can sew even if its just small scraps. lol i sure missed creating/sewing....

:D

the only thing i measure is the center block which i'm using 41/2

thanks kiddo, i'm having a blast cuz each one comes out different then the last.... i love scrap quilts too

Thanks dear. I'm just so happy to be sewing. I thought they were cute but wanted everyones opionion.....

whew! thank you. I was just kinda going with the flow (making it up) as i go.

Looks great Bev! Keep at it and share more, really cool pinups, too.

I think they look great and can imagine already how great the finished quilt is going to look. I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Looks great! What a wonderful way to use scraps! :lol:

Looking good Bev, keep it up and be sure you show us the results!!

I really like them Bevanger. Is there a web we can go to and find out more?

Keep going, Girl!!!! It's going to look great!! :thumbup: :-)

YES keep going! They look great!

THANK YOU :D

Oh good. I always get nervous starting new quilts. Not knowing if it looks ok

Thanks, I'm wondering if I should stick with the same color scheme or go more scrappier and do 5 different colors?

Thanks. Yes, I'll show the results

I honestly don't know. I can't remember what show it was on. I was doing my embroidery while the quilt shows were on. I looked up when this was on... I'll check around in hope to find it for ya'll

Thanks dearheart :D

THANK YOU.. :D

Looks really good Bev, want to see more as you get them done!!!

Most definitely you should keep going. They're going to make a great scrap quilt. And, you've given me a great idea for using some fabric I have. I didn't want to just put strips around the pre-printed little squares, but putting wonky strips like these around them would be just the perfect look. Thanks for sharing your blocks!

Bev we must sort of think alike. Look at what i downloaded just a little while ago. I want to try the same style quilt as you are making. By the way, yes you should keep going. Going to be very pretty and a good use of using of scraps so we can buy more fabric.

you bet :wink: Thanks kiddo

The strips around it come about the way you cut it. I'm not too good at writing, but will try to do a tut on it. Oh yeah.. Thanks!

Way cool girl.... Yours is gonna be a knockout,. I LOVE scrappy quilts....

Looking good Bev--I think it'd be a wonderful way to use up scraps and get a really cheery quilt.

thanks kiddo :D

I really like it! Don't stop! I bet I can use up all my ocean scraps with that pattern. Hope you get the tut up soon.
