Peaches and Dreams Start to finish DONE

A while ago" ONE I" challenged Jen to make a scrappy quilt. I of course was sucked into making one too. Now we all know I'm not a scrappy person when it comes to quilting so this was something TOTALLY out of the box for me to try. I checked all my scraps and decided the biggest selection of scraps I had were all in the purple family. I put all the purple scraps in a box and set it next to my sewing chair on the floor. OK, I got brave and pulled out the first scrap. That wasn't as hard as I thought it would be but the next move was a real challenge for me. Next up I had to put my hand in the box again and pull out the next piece. If I wanted this to be totally at random I had to do it this way. Out came the second piece to be sewn to the first and all I could think of is what had I gotton myself into. This went along for the entire middle of the quilt. Could it be I was actually relaxing and enjoying my new scrappy quilt? The more I put together the more I couldn't wait for this to be done. I stood back and loved the middle section but to me it needed some punch for the first border. Some of the purples I had did have a little red in them and I had a great piece of red with a tiny pin dot of white in it. The first border was born and I couldn't wait to finish the top. Now I love the whole scrappy thing and of course I love this pattern and can't wait to make another one. Of course the top is finally done and had it's picture taken and I still have enough purples to make a scrappy back of I think ten and a half in squares.
