I have been making a few squares every chance that I get for my quilt. It is a memory quilt in a way.
Most of the fabrics are scraps from my many bonnets that I have made. I also have one square made
from leftover fabrics from the tote bag class I took last summer, and one square where I am using the civil war
reproduction fabric from my quilted table runner class that I I also took last summer. I am trying so hard to sew 1/4" seams, but I am not doing very well. So after I finish all of the squares I will just have to
trim off the excess on some and make sure they are all the same size.
I have finished 31 squares and 25 more to go. Wow what a project. So what do you think of my scrap quilt? I hope I get the squares arranged so that the colors blend together.

Absolutely wonderful!!! I am planning to make one of these with the ton of fabric I have stashed upstairs : )
Looks so pretty Lecia!
Quilt love, beautiful L
Fabulous! I am in awe of anyone who quilts and yours is turning out beautifully!
I have so much fabric stashed away! A quilt like yours would be a good way for me to use some of it up. I washed and ironed it all about a year ago...so I think I should be ready to go!
What a beautiful memory quilt - you did a fantastic job on it!!! Congratulations

It's stunning Lecia! A wonderful treasure and heirloom!
I think it's looking great! I love the reds and greens. It's really nice that you're using your scraps up.
