Good for you --using up lots of scraps to make beauties. They're all lovely, but if I were asked to pick a favorite, the clam shell log cabin would be it. Keep sewing!

These are beautiful. To think that they are made from scraps only makes them better!

WOW, your quilts are so beautiful. I too have a lot of scraps, never knew what exactly I was going to do with them. I have made many, many "scrappy" family reunion quilts, as family members send me fabric and I make a quilt - I started it as a personal challenge and to create something to be passed on. Fortunately, my quilts have become a hit with the family; which is shrinking. Out of 7 children, my middle brother and myself, "the baby" are the only ones remaining; however, there are many grandchildren and great grandchildren that make it to the reunions which occur every other year. I have a niece who quilts, as well as her husband, and they have a long arm, so two years ago my niece quilted the reunion quilt. At the time I was suffering from a torn rotator cuff repair surgery that failed, so I could only sew for an hour or two before I had to quit, so I really appreciated her offer. I'm 70 years old now, but my niece tells me I'm not ready to retire yet. This year I plan to make a scrappy quilt from all the scraps from previous quilts, and I'm looking forward to the challenge.
