Default Very busy, scrappy quilt top

My 2 1/2" strip drawer was overflowing, so I looked for a pattern that would use up some of them. I found a photo on-line of this quilt in browns and golds. I had tons of blues/greens/purples, so that's what I used to make this quilt. It looks almost like a crosswork puzzle to me in the photo. It is 66"x86".

Beautiful! And you used up some of those strips that had been taking up space. Good for you!

Love everything about this quilt, these colors are 'my' colors, and the teal sashing and borders really complement the scraps.

I love how this made up! Such a beautiful top and to think it was made from your stash. You couldn't have made it prettier, if you had hand selected new strips.
