This is my first attempt at a quilt as you go...I am trying to use up scraps from the quilts I've made this past year. No blocks are sewn together yet, but this is how it will look....I think I am going to like it a lot!!
What do you think?

I LOVE it! String (or ribbon) quilts are some of my very favorites! (and you get to use up scraps as well) Just lovely...you're doing a great job!

Very, very nice & great use of your scraps. Isn't it wonderful what you can make out of a stack of fabric that's been shoved aside sometimes for awhile.

ann clare 07-28-2010 02:50 PM

Wow, wow, wow!

It looks great. My friend and I did that with all of our fabrics as well. We made strips of all of our fabrics that was not dedicated to something and we made one like that. It was alot of fun to do and it is amazing how well it looks even when nothing matches.

No, I have a back and batting for a quilt as you go. When the blocks are .sewn together it will be finished!
