NMQG Scrappy Challenge

We are SO excited to announce our next Guild Challenge!!!

SCRAP-MANIA!!!

#NMQGuildSCRAPPYchallenge!

That's right quilters!  We want you to make an AWESOME-alicious scrappy quilt!!

Definition of Scrap- a left over piece of fabric from another project. (Also, leftovers from other quilters bequeathed (or sold) to you counts as "scraps")  *you may buy a solid/neutral to tie your quilt together.  See Marion's examples below.

While "scrappy" has become a term to describe a quilt with TONS of color and/or fabric variety, for our NMQG Scrappy Challenge, we are wanting you to dig into your SCRAPS and use them up to make a work of quilty-goodness!

Each month (July, August and September) we will have different guild members share their take on the Scrap-Tastic quilts in their life!  What they make with their scraps
and how they sort and store them.

The challenge will end at our October meeting.  We will have a drawing for those who have COMPLETELY finished a scrappy quilt project.  (Remember, pillows and mini quilts count ;-))

For July's meeting, Marion introduced the challenge and showed us
several examples of scrappy quilts she had done.  

Below Marion has posted pictures of her scrappy quilts with a link to her blog posts about the quilts.  Links to tutorials/patterns are in her posts.  If you have a comment or question about a specific quilt, please leave a comment (or question) directly on her blog post that
 you have a question (or comment) about :)
