I got started on this quilt about a year ago as part of Scrap Happy Saturday on the So Scrappy Blog HERE. Each month there is a different color of scraps to focus on. The color for April is Aqua. So if you have lots of scraps, this might be a good way for you to use them.
These blocks are just laid out on the bed so that I can check the progress. I always love how a pattern comes to life once you lay the blocks out together.
I would love to quilt some kind of special design in each of the white areas, maybe like THIS or THIS
Here are some of the different colored blocks.
Sometimes I have worked on the quilt as a leaders and enders project. Other times it has been the main project. I only need to make six more blocks in lavender. I have already sewn some of the blocks together in rows, so it won't be too long before it will be a completed quilt top.
I'm playing around with ideas for quilts for three of my grandchildren. They are 2 brothers and their sister, who lost their quilts in the house fire. I'm planning to do similar, but in different colors, twin size quilts for them.
A good part of the enjoyment in quilting is in the planning!

What a great quilt. Love how you used all those scraps-they came together beautifully.
I remember some of these blocks. This is just gorgeous!!! You have some great scraps to pull all the colors together. I agree that the white blocks need their own special quilting design. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with for those precious grandbabies.
