I am so proud of myself I finally completed a quilt top that I had started so long ago I can't remember because I feel so embarrassed to remember OK. you bent my arm it's been 12 years can you believe it , during the hot day's I just couldn't concentrate on cutting out new blocks for the Amy's quilt along when it's hot measuring and decision making on what fabric to use and all that ,as I was organizing I found these pieces and I decided I am going to finish this I did !! so now that I will be doing free motion it will be perfect to practice on.
I started sewing two ,then two with other two ,and then fours together to make eights and so on .
I just love the way the stack looks all piled up ready to be run through the machine. So my quilt is ready to be quilted , I can't wait to start I think it will be challenging and most of all fun.

Theodora, This is a wonderful quilt!!! My favorite kind. So happy and scrappy. You have given me the idea for my next scrap quilt! Have fun with the free-motion quilting.
LOVE! Now, I can't wait to see it quilted!
Oh good for you Theadora; and, it is lovely! How big is it? Looks very large.
There is something about simple squares in a quilt that tugs my heart. You are brave, sewing that many squares together at once...I would get them all tangled up together. But I bet it went fast after you got started!
Theodora, it looks great! I love scrap quilts and yours has some wonderful colors. Can't wait to see it quilted!
XOXO,
Cyndi

This is an example of a real scrap quilt! Love it, it looks almost antique to me! Looking forward to seeing how you will quilt it!

Theodora, this is gorgeous!
12 years ago I started one like this, too, and unfortunately I never finished mine. Many of those scraps have now become hexagons for my latest quilt! :)
So, I am so proud of you for having finished this: well done. It is absolutely gorgeous!
:)
