Your quilt is beautiful.
Hi "rapture.....". This so true. Another pattern I found I loved using larger scraps than my wastebasket pcs. is Crazy Patch. I know this is not a new pattern but I didn't know that when I played around with my first one. I just fussy cut about 5-6" irreg. shapes from a fabric I loved that gave me the figures I liked. (birds, flowers, fairies, etc.)
Then I just added odd shaped strips of scrappy fabrics to all sides. Once it seemed big enough, I squared it into the size block I wanted. No, I don't use a foundation pc. the rules say I should use but my way works for me. Guess I missed that class. LOL. I found it to be a great way to use those almost to sm. to use fabrics. There are no mistakes on this one.
