A few year back I discovered Quiltville Bonnie Hunters site and became addicted to cutting up scraps. I have accumulated quite a lot of all sizes but never seemed to do much with them.
I did make one quilt Scrappy Bargello
I did a couple of her mystery's Orange Crush
and Double Delight.
These quilts didn't seem to even put a dent in all the scraps I had cut up. I think I just like organizing and putting strips in their own little boxes.
Yesterday I started another of Bonnie's patterns
Scrappy Trips Around The World
It goes really fast if you chain piece everything. The only problem I see is this quilt looks a lot like Scrappy Bargello. It uses a lot of the same fabrics. I needed to add more new ones to change the look you can still see all the ugly fabrics.
I guess I just didn't cut the pieces small enough.

Your quilts are so beautiful and don't we all love to cut our fabrics in strips and use Bonnie's patterns. Thanks for sharing!
