Recent Blue/Cream Creation

Hi,

My name is Diannia (Diana) and I'm a scrapaholic! Last year I pulled out a UFO box of Blue and Cream fabrics I'd collected w/a pattern and sewed my heart out making the blocks. I put it on my design wall and did NOT like it to the point I offered it to my quilting friends! They were kind enough to suggest I put it away for a while and pull it out again later. My "later" was last month. I started putting the blocks up on the design wall in different patterns and ended up with this:

Who knew I had an Irish Chain hiding in those blocks!!! I've since added borders to this, of dark blue (inner) and lighter blue w/stars (outer) and it's waiting patiently for me to quilt it. I will be gifting this to a nephew when he gets his life together enough to appreciate it...hopefully by Christmas!

That's beautiful. It makes me want to pull out my blue fabrics and make something scrappy, but then I remember I have some blue scrappy blocks in a pile somewhere already...hope I get motivated like you did to give them another shot!
