A new top!
40.5 x 58.5
Back on March 24 I received several bags of scraps and I decided to document with "Tales From The Scrap Yard" how many donation quilts I could make from those scraps. I've been trying to make the quilts all different. I sorted the scraps into different bins and boxes and this is the second quilt to come out of the brown scraps. I added in some of my own scraps (blue,white, red plaids and green and red stripe) to pick up the colors of some of the cars and trucks in the square that makes up the star.
This is the last quilt to come from the bags of scraps. The remaining scraps will get mixed with mine. Most of those scraps will go into slab, crumb and string quilts.
This was a fun exercise in scrap usage.
I've been blogging about all that I make from the March 24 gifted scraps (aka Candra scraps) in Tales of the Scrap Yard.
As seen previously on Tales from the Scrap Yard:
- Backstory and Quilt Tops #1-#3 (Greens)
- Quilt Top #4 (Green)
- Quilt Top #5 and Farewell to Green (Green and Pink Frogs)
- Quilt Top #6 (Warm Colors)
- Quilt Top #7 (Warm Colors)
- Quilt Top #8 (Cool Colors)
- Quilt Top #9 (Browns)

Wow, 10 quilt tops in 3 months! That is very impressive. And we all know that scrappy quilts take longer. I love the variety of quilts that you made with all those scraps!
This one is another awesome one!! you are knocking them out of the park!!
I really like this pattern too - I may....have to put it on my bucket list!
I really really like this one! Congratulations on TEN terrific quilt tops from those bags of scraps!
Those plaids just set that quilt off, in all those other darker blocks. Of course, the star makes it very special too! Ten finished in three month? Unbelievable! But we have seen them all! (I haven't even started one!) ---"Love"
3 months, 10 quilt tops! WOW! You've been busy! Love the way you've made this one; with the star, great idea.
Well done, Cathy!! You did a great job making use of Chandra's scraps. I'm sure she is SEW pleased!
10 Quilt tops for one bag of scraps! Amazing. Love this one with the big star in the corner. Every quilt is so different.
I love earth tones so this is a big winner to me!
Impressive!
