Fabric Tips for a Successful Scrappy Quilt
To make the most of your scraps, here are a few helpful tips:
-
Color Coordination: While the pattern is meant to be scrappy, consider grouping your fabrics by color tones (warm, cool, pastels, brights) for a more cohesive look.
-
Mixing Scales: Combine large, medium, and small prints to create visual interest and balance across the quilt.
-
Use a Neutral Anchor: Adding a neutral background or border (like white, cream, or gray) can help frame your scrappy pieces and tie everything together.

The Scrappy Celebration Quilt is incredibly versatile. You can play around with several layout options, such as:
-
Classic Grid: Simple squares arranged in rows for a classic patchwork look.
-
Rainbow Fade: Sort scraps by color to create a rainbow or ombré effect.

Framed Blocks: Feature a central scrap surrounded by a neutral frame for each block.
-
Diagonal or Diamond Settings: Add movement by placing blocks on-point or forming diamond patterns.
