Scrappy Runner


I'm using up scraps again........LOL......it seems that the more scraps I use, the bigger my pile gets.....you know what I mean.   Just look at my "wacky" girlfriends Kathy and Molly digging thru some of Molly's scraps.  My pile is just as mountainous as Molly's......LOL
Anyway, in this table-runner I've used some half square triangles us a great method that I have posted at the bottom of my blog (Half Squares in a Flash), along with plain squares and some 4-patches.  I plan to border it with a 2 inch dark blue fabric then maybe come back with a beige"y" 4 inch tone-on-tone something. What do you think?  Let me hear from you.

    Still being an "over-achiever", I see!!! LOL I really like that and it sure is a good way to use scraps. As for the scrap pile, I think it reproduces at night...kind of like rabbits...because I have the same problem with the scrap pile growing even though I'm using it more and more. *sigh*

    I think scraps multiply while we sleep!

    I love the totally scrappy look. I agree though that no matter how much fabric goes into a quilt the scrap pile never seems to get smaller.
