Scrap Quilt......

Yayyyyy, I have finished my first "proper" quilt....this one is a scrap quilt in that I have used pieces I already had for the blocks, I only bought fabric for the backing and sashes, and wadding, so I don't know if it really is a "scrap" quilt. The pattern/instructions came from crazymomquilts ~ flea market fancy quilt. It was my first attempt at a real quilt, and apart from one "crazy" moment and two rows not lining up, I'm really happy with how it has turned out. I didn't get the courage to stipple quilt it, I REALLY want to, but I can't/haven't got the hang of it yet.....I just ditch stitched around each square including the inside square. I made the binding from bits all joined together.

My next challenge will be a coin quilt of some description.

Thank you crazymomquilts ~ you're great inspiration !!
