Scrappy Mountains Majesty


After a couple of weeks of quilting and putting off quilting I have it quilted. I just love the way it turned out. I think I will dig into my stash and see how mush of these fabrics I still have and make a companion quilt same fabrics different pattern. It's for the camper and I could put 2 quilts on the bed in there.....
The pattern and directions I followed exactly from Bonnie Hunters Quiltville HERE






Now looking at her quilt mine is about the same colors she used greens and blues I used blues and browns/creams. Most of the fabric is from used clothing and a few quilt fabrics thrown in to get the right color scheme a couple ugly fabrics too. I used a few shirt pieces and some odd blue fabrics for the back.









And there was the batting deal. I had this batting and it was the same size as the quilt. I knew it would be short, but I didn't want to buy one when I had one that would almost work. So I dug into that over flowing drawer where I put all those left over batting pieces I keep almost all of them. And just added them in when I needed them. Now I need to trim it and put the binding on before we go camping.
