Love, love, love the scrappys and yours is beautiful. Can't help wondering just how many small scraps of fabric were put into the top of yours, though! Do you have much of a scrap pile left?

I calculate around approx 11 yards for the back -- but I'd do probably 12 for insurance!

If you have scraps left, make another scrappy for the backing -- a completely reversible quilt using just one backing AND another ton of scraps. Plus it only takes the space of one quilt when you store it. Plus, to change the quilt, just flip it over right on the bed.

It's AMAZING! It looks like you did some planning as there are diagonal rows of light squares in the center which really set it off nicely. I love it!
