I do a lot of scrappy quilts but they need something to pull them together like a black sashing or red borders. I have made some that are completely chaotic too but they are not my favorites.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17083924435653058457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769048173809484225.post-14311867102321111532008-11-11T02:56:00.000-05:002008-11-11T02:56:00.000-05:00I like scrappy quilts but i like people who say wh...I like scrappy quilts but i like people who say what they think more. <BR/><BR/>i think that the most successful scrappy quilts arent really that scrappy - planned scrappy. i think a mish mash of busy sushi prints sounds like crap - i think they maybe need to be broken up with plain fabrics or something.but most of my quilts are crappy - the scrappy ones and the non scrappy - so i probably shouldnt weigh with opinions.<BR/> <BR/>hey maybe we are related because thats what my family says to opposing opinions too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769048173809484225.post-25532639953882926112008-11-11T02:23:00.000-05:002008-11-11T02:23:00.000-05:00I love peoples scrap quilts, but am not great crea...I love peoples scrap quilts, but am not great creating them myself... I drive myself crazy with trying to balance everything out... I shall try again at some point though... 8-)<BR/>Love your Moda charm packs! Haven't seen that one before.<BR/>You could play "rippit" with your sushi blocks, and recreate them with some coordinating solids separating your prints... Just a thought! 8-)Myrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671717725163020678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769048173809484225.post-27891679659619990912008-11-11T01:24:00.000-05:002008-11-11T01:24:00.000-05:00I love scrappy quilts but I don't hate you! LOL ...I love scrappy quilts but I don't hate you! LOL To each his/her own! You play with charm packs? I throw a bunch together into 9 patches cut in half twice (the old altered 9 patch or disappearing 9 patch as they call it) and put myself a quilt together. I have made about 10 of these in the last 2 months. Love it, you can make them any size you want.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18176253777977885693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8769048173809484225.post-58105131241213387072008-11-10T21:51:00.000-05:002008-11-10T21:51:00.000-05:00I am with you.

I like the look of a quilt that is symmetric. I am also not real big on mixing lots of different blocks in one quilt. Keep it up. You will find some use for those blocks. How about making pet beds and donating them to a shelter? Dogs and cats don't really care what their beds look like.<BR/><BR/>Karen in IN<BR/><BR/>merrylittlequilter.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
