I really admire people who can look at a tub of scraps and come up with something so gorgeous. I look at my scraps and see......scraps.

I never thought about doing something like that and am quite enthused about trying it out. Thanks!

The colorful border finishes it off nicely...great job.

I do like that quilt; I like scrappies and I think I have the Hanging Gardens pattern; I might have to haul my box of scraps out and try that. Very pretty quilt.

[QUOTE=Sheep Farmer;8042733]I grabbed my hefty bag of scraps, bits 'n pieces and started sewing them together. I figured I could use up All of my scraps.

Ha!

I don't think I even made a dent in the scrap pile! What's up with that!?!

I did not use any foundation for the blocks; however, I had some old adding machine tape laying around and used it to sew pieces for the border. That was a huge help when it came time to trimming since I didn't have to worry about measuring! The adding machine tape was already 2-inches.

I used my Hanging Gardens pattern (from Cozy Quilt Designs) for the layout. I had to do some math (ouch) for the setting triangles since my 7-inch scrappy blocks were smaller than what the pattern calls for.
! What can I say that hasn't already been said.......I Love It!

Beautiful scrappy! With the sun shining through the quilt top, it looks like stained glass. So lovely.

Very pretty scrappy and love how you used the pattern. I think our scraps multiply while we sleep!!

I'm not a big fan of scrappy, but you've changed that with this beauty!!! To me, it doesn't even look scrappy with the way you've tied everything together with the black & white. What a beautiful quilt!!!

Great idea! I really like that pattern...think I'll order it and do what you did. Those 'scraps' now sparkle!
