I like all the variety in your quilts. The one that's second from the bottom in your first post--what's that pattern? I think I might try that one. Or at least put it on the Someday Maybe list:)

I'd join but I already did this for this year. So now I'm starting a new scrap pile for next year.
These are all the "scrappy" quilt tops assembled this spring http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ps4fudrzgg.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psygd034lf.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psxlfpztlm.jpg These two are in progress, but all the peices are ready. The string quilt is in rows that need to be sewn together. They are both pictures of only a part of the quilt. Both will end up around queen size. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psrmztkvqn.jpg http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psdvkclojg.jpg This one pretty much used up my batik scraps - though I did have to buy a layer cake as I ran out of a few colors. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psqgq7lz0f.jpg I still have a few totes of 1.5" and 2.5" strips, and one of triangles, but I sort of sick of scrappy quilts right now. Wow, those are great. What's the pattern of the one on the long arm? It looks intriguing. Do you create a pattern, then sew to it? Or have some sort of intermediate step? I tend to sew my strips together until I get tired of sewing, then press and figure out later what to do with them. Or if I get a bunch of squares, I'll sew 4 patches for awhile. |
Love this scrappy! Is this your own design or a pattern? Looks like a fun top to put together. Thanks for posting.

Very pretty, Macybaby!

Macybaby, I love your quilts. My favorite looks like an Arkansas Crossroads pattern only very scrappy and perhaps not the 9P centers. Is this your own design and could I copy it? Great job on all your scrappy quilts!!
|
Macybaby I love your quilt posted in #203. Do you have a pattern? Another one added to my wish list. By the way I love all the others too.

Charity - the one on the LA is Snake River, it's a modified log cabin design. None of these are my own design - mostly I find pictures of something I like and then figure out how to make it. Except the Sylvia's Bridal sampler (last one pictured)- it's one thing to figure out one block that is used 50 times, but not figuring out 50 blocks that are used one time!
Happylab, I did not purchase a pattern for that one, but it's real simple as it's only two 3.5" blocks (unfinished). I used a row of 3.5" blocks to break it up a bit. The best part of going scrappy, you don't need to know the yardage - and often that is the hardest thing to figure out without a pattern that tells you what you need. |

Here is a scrappy I made earlier this year it's from Joan Ford's book on scrap quilting. I think it's called sugar and spice. It's baby quilt size.
