    I see you even have a clothes line hanging just like mine which I use it about 3 times a week even in the winter time.
    Nothing smells better than sheets hung outside to dry in the fresh air and sunshine!!!

    Really nice quilt. I like your idea of cutting and storing the squares until you get enough. Great way to get a nice variety.
    Good quilting, as well.

    Great job with your quilt. Like the others, I like the idea of cutting the extra square!

    My first quilt contained pieces of leftovers from clothing that I had made for my husband and son and myself. I couldn't waste all those good leftovers!. I used to sew a lot, so I had lots of leftovers. I added just a little to fill out the quilt. It's a brick pattern, browns, tan and yellow with red for the 'mortar'. For a while, I also put a piece of material left from making my wedding dress in all my quilts, too, as a sort of personal i.d. Because I had never quilted before, I tied it. Still have it, after 30 years.

    Thank you for posting your gorgeous quilt! As a fellow scrap lover ...
    I also cut all extra fabrics into various size squares, strips and set aside
    for those future projects.
