I saw this quilt in the background of a quilting tutorial for another item. It intrigued me. Reminded of my Great Grandmother's quilts which were made from bits of old clothing we had outgrown. I had not wanted to make a scrap quilt but for some reason this one called to me. In a couple of weeks the teacher actually gave the instructions for the quilt and I got out my scraps (I had actually threw out a trash bag full only a few months earlier) and got to sewing. My husband claimed it right away. I had been trying to get him to take one of the other quilts for months but he never wanted one until he saw this one right after I put the binding on. It reminded him of his own Granny's quilts.
