SCRAPPY DANCE !

I guess that should read "happy dance" but I am nearly finished my scrappy projects. Woo Hoo ! These quilts have been a lot of piecing, but worth the effort.  The best thing is, I have put loads of scraps to good use.

It started with this,




.......and progressed to this





which gave me these,




a little more of this,





And I got these!


then it was some planning and colouring, and now


they are all at the "some assembly required" stage. Can't wait to show you all the quilts when they are together.


Please tell me it looks like there is less



Happy dance : )

    Yes, it looks a LITTE less crowded in that basket. By the way, is that basket really orange? Which would be totally awesome....This is going to be a great quilt!

    Happy scrappy Dance indeed! They look marvelous, and yes the basket does look a tad bit smaller but maybe you've packed it in tighter?
