    I love the different shades of black and gray. They give movement and dimension to the busy and brightly colored scrappy strips. The whole quilt is beautiful and very well done!

      Completely agree. Sometimes you stop when you've got a good thing.

    Hmmm This was marvelous, toss all of your misgivings. I appreciated 'the everything' about this quilt. I would rerecord it and just say "Isn't it Gr--reat!" Because it is. Thanks for the inspiration!

    I love thise gorgeeous brights with the rich darks, this project is gorgeous! Exactly the type of quilt I would want to snuggle up in on a winter day for a splash of brightness.

    Totally balanced. Satisfying regardless of our distraction with scrappiness.

    It's so pretty, with those vibrant colors and black! I'd love to see those squares set on point!
    I've seen similar joining of small scraps, but when they are all seen together, it can look messy and undefined. Adding a sold color and a design, makes it more fun and cheerful.

    Mixing the gray and black is brilliant as not all blacks are the same and it shows if you were hoping for a true match. Also like that the blocks are big

    I totally love that quilt. I think the juxtaposition of the brights and the black is very stunning. I would love to have that quilt. In fact, I just put that one at the top of my list to make from a bunch of my scraps left over from a quilt I made a long time ago.

    Love it! I got an idea from someone, so made a very long roll of scrappy fabric, 2.5” wide, and then just cut off whatever lengths I needed when i needed them. Then you can add to the roll any time you like. Works brilliantly! Deb x 🤗

    I think this is a very successful quilt including the multitoned 'black'! I am working on two scrappy projects where i just crumb piece. One involves 10 by 12 blocks I'll finish in strips then quilt the strips of ten by the length, then attach the strips! Fun stuff!

The point is we are all different and unique and all express our personalities and creativity differently! Thats the beauty of the creative process. Your choices are unique to you and they are great! For what it's worth, im a new fan! Thank you Norah! ❤

    Really liking these blocks except the directional teacups lol. The thin black border looks good I was thinking a thin orange border but black looks great with the zebra fabric which is the best border out. I love your backing this is really good don’t give up on it like you say put it away for a few days then relook and you’ll love it I’m sure 🟧⬛️

    That is beautiful and brilliant, you are being too hard on yourself with your critique of the outcome. The genius of scrappiness is that it is what it is and it’s supposed to impromptu and the beauty comes in its randomness and scrap this. I do love my scrap and my brights, and I will use this concept. Mixing the black and dark charcoal really added far more movement than just a solid black. It kept with the theme of the scrappiness and movement of the piece. I subscribed and hope to see more from you.

      I agree Nora, you couldn’t decide if it is cool or too random, I think it’s cool BECAUSE it’s random. Love the scrappy solids, way more interesting than just one colour 😊

    Love your quilt. Gets me thinking about more possibilities. I have lots of 5 inch charm squares, which l could sew together and cut the strips from, either trimming to 4 1/2" wide or leaving 5 inches and adjusting measurements. Or what if I used all blue scraps with red or yellow scraps pieced for the contrasting fabric. Thanks for your taking the time to record this video. Fun to watch your process.

    I think the pattern is great but agree that a solid black would have made it pop more. Although the zebra fabric is fun, the border is maybe too wide. The zebra print overwhelms the pieced blocks. JMHO

    I think the zebra takes over at THAT size, so I would make it instead 1.5" wide finished size and then put a 2.5 to 3" black border on. The zebra how it is , it's distracting from the whole which is beautiful!
