Quilted Thanks


Who here doesn't have a heaping pile of scraps at their craft table? I have a stack that must be 8 or 9 inches high. I just measured it, it's only 6 & 1/2", I guess I don't have much of an eye for measuring. Anyway, I found a challenge on Splitcoast to use your scraps to make a quilt. If I were to make a quilt using all my scraps my card would be, um, maybe the size of my neighborhood block. But we now know that I'm bad a measuring anyway, so give or take a little. So, I've been using my Mariposa stack and have some leftovers to put to good use. This card is very simple, (I like those), I just matted 1 & 1/2" squares and tied some ribbon onto a a metal art frame that I got at Michael's yesterday in the clearance bin. 99 cents! Can't beat that!
Thanks for looking!
