Do you have scraps in a basket? I am always looking for ideas to use up my stash of scraps.
I love scrappy quilts...to make for myself and to quilt for customers. This beautiful scrap quilt was pieced by Sally. We decided to go with the panto called Peacock Palm in a taupe color thread.
Interesting border.
Backing of the quilt.
The next scrappy quilt was pieced by Julie. The Curly Q panto in a tan color thread is a good option for scrappy quilts.
I love all these 9 patch blocks...they are perfect for all those scraps in a basket.
Happy Quilting!

Scrappy quilts are wonderful and these are no exception. I especially like the first one where the blocks are set on point.
ReplyDeleteScrap quilts are the best.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work, Millie
I feel a great sense of accomplishment when I can turn my scraps into something nice. The quilts you showed here certainly did a good job of that and your quilting is, of course, wonderful.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty scrappy quilts! You did great job picking desings and quilting them! It is always a joy to look at the beautiful quilts you are working on.
ReplyDeleteHappy sewing!
They are all so pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilting on them too!!
Millie! I love this border that Sally chose. I love this quilt as a matter of fact and as always, I have to say it, you work so well with your customers to pick out "just the right" quilting and thread. I think you're right with tan or taupe thread. It does a nice job of "sinking into" the quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love those 9 patch blocks that Julie did with the sashing and cornerstones. Very cute and fun. ...and Millie - that particular panto - Curly Q - that COMPLETELY WORKS!!!!!
Gosh it's so much fun at your place. The only thing missing is an updated picture of my buddy Max. ;)
LOVE these scrap quilts, Millie! I think it is time for me to start digging in the scrap box, too!

Hi Millie, Scrap quilts are one of my favorite also, espcially vintage ones. I've been using my scraps for strip quilts lately.
