Another scrappy quilt top done


Another scrappy quilt top done! This time it's the High Five quilt from the Sunday Morning Quilts book. I didn't follow the pattern exactly: the original pattern has some large blocks added to all these small (5") blocks and is much larger than this one. Mine ended up about 47 by 65".


I made the 5" blocks from my (rather large) scrap stash and worked on this quilt top on and off in the past winter months. I'm very happy with the end result.

    I love seeing a true scrap quilt. Those little pieces are as hard to get rid of as they are to use. Thanks for sharing. This is a great quilt.

    This is a very happy scrappy quilt! And all the better if it was all from stash. Look forward to see it all quilted up! x

    I love it, and not only that you have persuaded me that I should keep even my tiny scraps if something as beautiful as that can (eventually) be the result.

    Fabulous scrappy quilt. I can even see a little, white rabbit in one of the pieces.

    It looks beautiful. Love the fabrics you used. Peek a boo little, white bunny, I see you.

    Can't wait to see it all done, washed, and ready to use.

    A very lovely quilt. I have never done a quilt before but this one gives me inspiration and I will have to search on how to go about getting started making a quilt because like I said, I know nothing. lol :)

      Thank you :) There are many quiltbooks out there from which you can learn the basics. I think Elizabeth Hartman's Practical Guide to Patchwork might be a good place to start! http://www.amazon.com/The-Practical-Guide-Patchwork-ebook/dp/B004RQD3IO/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1361260772&sr=8-4&keywords=hartman+patchwork Good luck! :)

    I love it! I wish I had a bigger scrap bin :-) I'm sure I will one day and then I'll make something as lovely as this.
