What a great way to use up all those left over scraps. Thanks for posting.

Very pretty quilts. I'm sure they will bring comfort to someone in hospice.

It's a great quilt. I love the scrappy look.

I like using the "chinese coins" pattern. You have done a very nice job of organizing the scraps. It looks very planned. Thank you for providing help to others.

Beautiful quilt, love those scrappies! I think that quilt pattern is called stacked coins, so it really could be a planned quilt and not a scrappy - lol Seriously, the quilts are beautiful and someone will be very lucky to get them.

Wonderful use of your scraps! The colors are cheerful and just looking at the quilts makes me feel good. But I confess you are a better woman than I. My scraps were taking over my life and making me feel guilty, so I gathered them into several gallon sized Ziploc bags and took them to a thrift store. I am also reducing my inventory by giving fabric I know I will never use to a friend who is teaching kids to sew. froggyintexas

The pieces are 6" in length and 1" to 3" wide, just sewn together along the 6" side. The sash is 2-1/2" wide. Made up the pattern myself - if you can call it a pattern.
