    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:
    beautiful, that is what I need to do, I have so many scraps

    I've never had an interest in scrappy, but your quilt may change my mind! Did you have a pattern or make it up?

    If you look at these close ups you will see that my 'lights' are in fact all shades, from white, off whites, creams, beiges, lemon, pink, green and lilac1 As long as you have contrast between the lights and darks, anything goes..no need to go and buy white :D :D :D
    Thanks! I should have enough to contrast, thanks for the inspiration!

    Your quilt is gorgeous. I prefer making scrap quilts and it seems like I always have an endless supply of scraps. Thanks for posting a picture of it.
