    Default controlled scrappy

    Usually I like the totally scrappy look, but I was given a box of 3" squares by a lady who had a stroke and was unable to quilt anymore. Since in some cases ther were a couple hundred of some of the pattern, I made a 12-patch and it will be donated to the charity I sew for. Thanks for looking.

    P.S. Just noticed I made the bottom border wrong, the light colors were supposed to fall on opposite the lights on the quilt top. Need to change that or it will drive me nuts. LOL that's the OCD kicking in.

    Very nice quilt...I could live with those borders very easy. I think they look good.
