both are wonderful... I like how the block centers make up stars in the first one... looks like you are putting your scraps to good use.

Beautiful scrappy quilts. You have a great talent for arranging your patches to bring about wonderful balance between colors, lights, mediums and darks.

Weasie, thank you for the photos and the source for the patterns! Lovely work and I like #2 so much. What a terrific way to use up those scraps. The end result is beautiful. Who would ever think that a bunch of scraps can be turned into such an attractive and useful quilt. Thanks for showing off you work!

awesome quilts. So cool with the pinwheels and friendship stars. I have to try the friendship stars. How long did they take you to make? you did a wonderful job. I really like them.

Just love all your car quilts, but I would have a hard time keeping them in the car where no one else could see them. I have a hard time doing scrappys so maybe this will inspire me.

Default Pattern for pinwheel scrappy

Hi steelecg ... I didn't have a pattern for the quilt with the pinwheels. I just made the pinwheel blocks and then did a 4 patch block as the second block. I actually just made those two main blocks and arranged them on the design wall. Then added sashing which consisted of strips and 2 1/2" squares. It was just a hit and miss type of design! I really had fun playing with all of the fabrics! I made this one for my daughter who is an artist. She loved it. She'd point to a fabric and ask what was that from. It was great telling her about the different quilts and other quilted projects. I was lucky to have fabrics from her Dad's quilt to use in hers. He passed away in 2014, so that was special. Thanks for asking.

Hi Weasier! I love what you are making here with your scraps. You go girl! Everyone should have a car quilt. What a great idea.

Did you see the dog show yesterday on tv? A boxer was in the running for the best in show after winning best in class. It looked much like cruser.
