Yep that's right. My Scrap Attack project was making 4 quilts from my scraps as there were getting completely out of hand. And yes I made 4 quilts and still have enough scraps to make another 4. And there's a prize for me at the end of project scrap attack. I get to start a quilt that I just absolutely fell in love with the first time I saw it. So 4 quilts huh? Yep Scrap Attack number 1 can be seen
here. I won a bag of scraps that had the coral and brown fabrics. I never put them away so I used them up. I added the greenish yellow color. I love the combination of colors in this one. Not something I ever would have planned for myself. And that's what I love about using up scraps, you do things that out of your comfort zone.

And then there's freshly squeezed- scrap attack quilt 2 - I used left over strings that were just sitting there looking all pretty and a charm pack that I never put away. Front and back are all scraps

Scrap Attack #3 is a QOV quilt. Just used 2.5 in strips. I even got the binding out of my scraps on this one. Not sure how I ended up with so many 2.5 in strips of the same fabric but they were all in the scrap bin. And now put to good use!

And the final Scrap Attack is a graduation gift for a friend. She's going to University of WI so I made a quilt in her college colors. The reds are completely exhausted in the scrap bin. I had to break into a few fat quarters on this one, but the Red, White, Black and blue (from the QOV) scraps are completely under control and waiting to be replenished. I have the EQ file that I'll post on the EQ and Tutorials page later in the week if anyone is interested.

Isn't there just something so satisfying when you make a quilt from your scraps? I just love the feeling of making a whole quilt with the left overs from other projects. So nice.
I also finished a QOV that was sent to me from Marian. What a great pattern she used. I wanted to create motion in this so I had the feathers winding around the blocks. I was in a feather mood!!
Now with all that done, here's what I am going to start on next weekend, so excited!!!
