    I kept muttering, "Black border before the zebra..." and you DID IT! Personally, I love this quilt! Lively and fun! 💖

    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.

      Absolutely agree! Blk, grey, navy works very well!

    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.

    Yeah, standing here making deviled eggs for our youngest son and my hubby. And the best ever quilting content just flashed across my screen. Thanks so much Norah as love both your creativity and kind heart. Hugs from Maine.

    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.

  • @marygem
    @marygem Před 29 dny +9

    Totally balanced. Satisfying regardless of our distraction with scrappiness.

  • @naomijackman4307
    @naomijackman4307 Před 29 dny +8

    I live the black-grey scrappiness, nice easy lap quilt to put together - I might get my scraps out!

  • @barbarachattin-mcnichols2370

    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

  • @joydavis3089
    @joydavis3089 Před 27 dny +2

    I Love this unique use of leftover scraps. This looks great. I have some leftover black, gray and white floral fabric and I think it would make a nice border for this kind of quilt.

    Super cool idea, I have a lot of crumb blocks, I think I will chop them up to these sizes and do that with some of them, I like the scrappy dark blocks, looks good. Tks love,it. Can’t wait till your next video.

  • @sherylm2442
    @sherylm2442 Před 3 dny

    I know you had a "vision" for this quilt but personally I love it. I really like the scrappy black as I think it gives it a lot of visual interest. I think overall it looks great and very interesting. It inspires me for another use for my scraps! Thank you for sharing.

  • @camillewinnie27
    @camillewinnie27 Před 23 dny +1

    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.

  • @FoD1975
    @FoD1975 Před 29 dny +2

    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 just LOVE your quilt! All the comments about "better" choices or what one would do personally are all valid..for the individuals who made them. 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! ❤

    I love it ! I will have to try it . I have no zebra fabric and I'm determined not to buy more fabric. So, I'll see what I can come up with. Did I mention that I love it. Thanks to your friend for the idea.

    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 🟧⬛️

    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!

  • @manuelashannon1369
    @manuelashannon1369 Před 28 dny +2

    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.

    • @lindaking-underwood7481
      @lindaking-underwood7481 Před 27 dny

      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 😊

  • @beckypetersen2680

  • @jenedelwilcox6647

    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.

  • @Peach231231
    @Peach231231 Před 18 dny
