Playing with Scraps

Scrappy quilts are my fav kind of quilts and yesterday I pulled out my bin of 1.5" scraps. The quilt I've been dreaming of making with these little pieces was a scrappy double Irish chain quilt. 

I love rearranging the pieces until I get something that looks good and I started with just a white background & scraps. 

Then I put yellow scraps for the main diagonal chain of squares and liked that look. 

A few blocks later and this looks like a project to keep working on. Can't wait to see a full-size quilt from these scrappy blocks.
