I have not been very good about sharing finishes lately. So, I thought today I would share a bunch of pretty scrappy donation quilts that have crossed the finish line.
Let's start out with this bright and fun novelty quilt. What a great way to use those colorful novelty scraps and the color placement is (chef's kiss)!
The tag got misplaced on this one, but I think it was made by Sue or Jean. I do know local longarm quilter Laura not only quilted it but also sewed on the binding for us.
We even made the backside scrappy.
I made this little quilt top from some leftover fabric we had. Last fall, we made some fun plaid napkins for our craft sale. We had some leftovers and there was just enough to make this. Of course, we had to put a big buffalo plaid on the back. Local quilter Cindy finished it up for us.
Here is another quilt top I made. I have been cleaning out our flannel scraps and I came across some larger squares. I was able to find a few more prints that I could cut up to have enough for this quilt top.
Charlene sent us the green flannel for the back and Laura quilted up this one too.

I have always wanted to try to make one of these plaidish designs. Bonnie did a great job on the quilt top she sent us. Thanks to Nann, we had a nice green flannel for the backing. I think Laura may have quilted this one too.
Look what you can do with a lot of HSTs. I bet Elana used "bonus" HSTs to make this sweet little quilt. Thanks to Kristin, we had a nice flannel to use on the backing.
So how is that for a little scrappy quilt show. Now you can add your scrappy show and tell in the links below.

Great use of scraps to make beautiful quilts! Love the plaids!!!
Thanks for the lovely parade. It's always so much fun to see what others are doing and finishing. That HST one is calling my name, lol. Enjoy a lovely sewing week. ;^)
It's always so fun to see what people do with their scraps! There are infinite possibilities. Hope you have a relaxing Sunday, Cyndy!
Very fun scrappy quilts. My favorite is that plaid one. I've wanted to make one of those. My bucket list is so long, not sure I'll ever get that far.
It's such a treat to see the quilts being made for Many Hands Many Hearts! I love that first one! I could see me making one of those. Sorting and organizing is important, you are doing good work. I hope you get to sew sometimes, just for fun.
Those are all lovely scrap quilts!
Gosh, the HST quilt sure is a looker! I am always amazed at all the different ways HSTs can be incorporated into layouts!
Lovely quilts of so many designs. And yes, my little quilt at the end was made using leftover HST's. Of course, I still had to add a few new ones to create enough coverage, but it was mostly a "bonus" quilt as you guessed!!. Kristin's flannel backing is lovely and the swirl quilting is a nice contrast to the angular patchwork triangles.
Love all the quilts. I think the plaid one is my favorite. BTW - the linky party seems broken. Blessings
