Remember my quest to use up all my scraps? Well here’s #6 all finished up! Years ago I had a quilt book that included this pattern. I no longer have that book, but I did make a quilt in 2012…
Scrap Quilt #6
Time to show you another of the scrap quilts! This is one that wasn’t in the plans either. As I was nearing the end of cutting up all the scraps, I seemed to have a nice sized pile of little…
Scrap Quilt #5
So my last quilt (the pinwheel one) used up all the ‘dirty’ or ‘muddy’ colors. This one is all the ‘clean colors. So the squares all started at 5″, and I had to go to my fabric stash to supplement…
Scrap Quilt #4
I feel like this is a lot of photos of quilt #4, but there were just so many individual blocks and fabric combos that I love, I wanted to show them all close up! So as I was cutting up…

Small Basket Quilt

Green Carolina Chain Quilt
I finished up this little quilt at least a month ago, but finally sharing it so I can add it to the linkup for the Fourth Quarter Finishalong. This top was in my pile to finish up, and I did…
Basket Quilt: Tribute to Gwen Marston
