Quilt Top Done

Here it is the quilt of scraps.  After cutting as many scraps as I could into 1.5 inch with strips, I started piecing this together.  The fabric is mostly randomly placed, however, the overall pattern of the giraffes was painstakingly drawn and measured.  So now the many many many 1 inch strips are positioned just so to make this lovely scene.  The overall dimensions are 36 across and 56 long.   There will be another one representing the night sky.  These two quilts each the same size will be a focal point on my living room wall.  It will be quite a statement at around 6 feet across.   I am happy with the way it turned out, and would you even guess that most of the seams actually match up!!!  Now I am not sure how I want to boarder this, if at all.  Any ideas, suggestions?  I can't wait to get started on the next one.

New Quilt Project

I purchased a jelly roll by Moda the blossom pack. I just love the fabric. I did not know what I was going to do with it, but I had to have it...and it was on sale. After a few weeks of just looking at it sitting on my table, I came up with a plan. With a few days off, I was able to bring it all together. Here is the first glimpse of the quilt top.

I have to back and quilt it still, but not bad progress for a few days. I still have more than half of the jelly roll to use for another project. I can't wait to get more of these, when they are on sale of course!
