Last time I showed this quilt it was a flimsy. Now it’a quilted and bond. I love all the scrappy happiness in this quilt. The stars are leftovers from this quilt, that was also a scrap quilt. You know your a scrap quilter when you make scrap quilts from the scraps of a scrap quilt. I didn’t have a real plan for them but while organizing some pre cut scraps this idea came to me. I’m pretty pleased with the results.
I quilted it on the diagonal through the rows. I used leaves, they are easy for me. Then tried the starburst in the stars.
This next quilt is a group effort. It was made at my Quilty Hug Sew Ins. Sue cut it out. Shelly pieced it.
I quilted with simple organic lines. Finally Sherri bond it. I like it’s simplicity and fell it will work for a man. I often worry I don’t make enough masculine Quilty Hugs. I need to work on that.
After posting last week I made it to the fabric shop for matching thread and got this little wonder bond. I’m glad I held out for the matching thread. I love the way the orange binding sets off the quilt.

Feeling pretty productive with this weeks results. Even if they were mostly done to begin with.

Wonderful work Em .The quilts are beautiful. And you did amazing quilting. I don't know about 'easy'it looks hard to me. Lovely quilting.
Awesome! These quilts look lovely and I really like your quilting choices on all of them…but especially the wonky star 🙂
Your scrappy quilt from a scrappy quilt makes me giddy with joy! I love it so much. There is so much detail in color, print, pattern and the quilting! -Mind Blown-
Beautiful as always.
Three great finishes, you have been very busy! Your scrappy 'star quilt' would be my pick!
really great idea for the scraps
Wow you have been really cranking things out this week. Indeed a perfect quilt for a guy and I love your scrappy stars quilt. Nice work.
But…have you used the scraps of the scraps of the scraps yet? Hee!!! Gorgeous quilt, I love it!!!
Great quilts! I have that black bird fabric… Your scrap quilt looks fantastic!
Those are great quilts. I especially like the Dahlia quilt — pattern, colors, and binding are all great!
Scraps from a Scrap Quilt turned out GREAT!! I have some blocks that could be set in this fashion. Thanks for the inspiration!!
A very productive week indeed with some lovely results.
