Scrap Exchange Quilt!

This beautiful quilt was made by Karen Gonzalez, a Scrap Exchange customer.  She says: "This quilt is the result of a huge bag of home-dec weight fabric scraps collected at last year's Scrap Exchange warehouse sale.  I followed the original rectangular shapes of the scraps to create a horizontal pattern of "slices."   I sewed the whole thing in a week and gave it as a wedding gift to my best friend.  It was difficult to part with it!"  Thanks to Karen for sharing her ScrapX creation!

If you have a project you'd like to share that you made from Scrap Exchange materials, email a picture and description to store@scrapexchange.org!!!
