End of year 2015

Last year I concentrated on trying to use up my scraps.... Making several scrap quilts ..well more then several.. I enjoy using my scraps, one finds all sorts of favourite fabrics  some very small others a reasonable size...they bring back memories of quilts made thru the years. Here are a few I made towards the end of last year. 
    I think the yellow is the zing in this quilt 


Smaller sized blocks here so I added a border...

A border of green added to this one, theses blocks are bigger in size using only 9.

This is the one in my previous post 

And a couple of backs 


Using remaining larger pieces for a backing 

 And the last one not a backing another lap quilt . 

Waiting to be quilted...some I will handquilt using pearl cotton some I will machine quilt.
