For all of you out there that hasn't bitten the bullet and gone totally scrappy, get cutting up your scraps and join in the fun!
Thanks again, Grammy Dywnn for starting your scrap quilts topic, I don't think I would have been brave enough to do this without all the inspirational quilts posted, so thanks everyone :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks again for all your fantastic compliments! I will be layering up this weekend and to complete it...I will no doubt be doing 'scrappy' free motion as this is rather a large quilt to squeeze through my Janome LOL

Thank you :thumbup:
I must admit that I have enjoyed organising all my scraps, but haven't cut into anything bigger than a fat 1/8th as my fabric is precious and I can't bear to waste it! It has given me no end of pleasure to create this quilt for DH John, not that I didn't have many doubts in the beginning about how it would actually look :shock: , but going by the reviews I think it's a winner after all :D
