It's growing!

Quilts go together so quickly when one has blocks already made LOL!

The Crumb Chaos quilt has doubled in size. Three more rows are needed at the bottom. They are stitched together and only need to be attached to this unit. Then a single row of blocks needs stitching together to go all the way from top to bottom on one side. Add borders and a quilt top is finished. I'm going to ask Rick and Rebecca if they want this one for a camping quilt. It will depend on whether or not Rebecca thinks it's too pink. If they don't want it then it's another for Hotel Hope.

Amazing what can be made with scraps many people throw out!

Wow, it looks great. And as you say, all made from what some people would call rubbish.

Fantastic!

Lynda said...

It looks so good! Interesting though, that you feel there's quite a lot of pink. Mine seemed to have a lot of red and blue. Indicative of our favourite colours? Or recent quilts?

Hi Patti, it looks good to me! And it's nice to see these quilts grow from what some people consider junk!
I don't think it's too pink at all!
The string top looks good too! I also like the strong statement the center strip makes when consistant in size..*VBS*
Read all the way down to the antique quilts..my, my but you are busy taking inventory and stock of things that are and things that need doing...LOL. Must be the fall weather that is coming..or maybe your pending retirement??? Big hugs, Finn
