What a mess!

Work is ongoing with my memory crazy quilt and it’s almost ready for borders. Those will be put on when I return home. This quilt is entirely made from stash. Some of the sashing strips were pieced as there was not enough fabric to make whole ones and I didn’t want to buy more fabric. All that is left of that fabric now is just bits. Yeah! :o)

You think this area is messy …. well, I didn’t take a photo of the rest of the mess. At least all the colours are together dumped on the floor. The mess will get all scooped up and returned to their respective bins and stored away until the next time.

I love making scrap quilts, but just hate the mess that is involved making them.

Someday, I’ll have to show photos of my studio and my stash, but it will need to be sorted and cleaned up first. :o)

Have a great day!

I've got to do something with all of my scraps, too. They can make a mess can't they. I'm glad I'm not the only one with a few messy areas.

It doesn't look too bad to me! That crazy quilt is going to be beautiful.

Rose Marie I don't think that's too messy. We want to see photo's of the before and after cleanup of your studio... Love the crazy quilt.

I agree that scrap quilts are the messiest but it's so nice to make something from left overs.

This is not messy, it just looks like you have been working!

I don't want to see pics of your sitting room, I want to see the quilt. And the stash! ;-)

That's not too messy -- if you want messy you should see my "work" area!
