Scrap quilts are made with "scraps". Some blocks/patterns lend themselves to have scrap pieces "pulled out" and stitched together randomly. I think the most difficult task of making scrap quilts, is getting it all organized. Lights in one pile/bag/box and darks in another. Sometimes I pull out a light, and a dark, and they are too close together, I just drop one back in, and grab another.<br /><br />But you have made a start, and that is the first step! I like the blues.<br /><br />-AliceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-74852371465934330912012-05-28T15:15:49.841-05:002012-05-28T15:15:49.841-05:00I like how it's turning out, but I understand ...I like how it's turning out, but I understand your dilemma, too.

You'll get there and you've got a good plan to let this quilt challenge you to work on it. I look forward to seeing what you decide to do for borders. I'm sure it will be spectacular!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515254293191853580noreply@blogger.com
