Scrappy Trips quilt top

This past week I finally got all of the scrappy trips blocks together!!!
I used fabric lines by Sandy Gervais for all of the blocks.....

 This is the top left.....

 Here is the top right.....

 Here is the bottom left.....

 Here is the bottom right....

Here is a photo of the quilt more from the top of the quilt but the top rows are not in the photo...
It was hard getting the photo of the whole thing....
My hubby got the photo at the top of this post and it was actually the last photo we got...
He got it by standing on a ladder to get all of the quilt in the photo....

Pat Sloan got me going this month to sew every day.....
I will be posting another time about my other projects I am working on....

64 blocks for scrappy trips quilt

 I have posted a photo of each block I have made for my scrappy trips quilt.....

 I started these blocks in January and have certainly enjoyed putting all of them together....

 I used Sandy Gervais fabrics for all of the blocks.....

Here is the last block.....sad in a way as it has been so fun...........
Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville has the directions for the scrappy trip around the world...

Here are some of the blocks on my LR floor.....
Taking photos is a good way to see what blocks look best together....
I just layed blocks down to see what happens...
I have a lot of major changing blocks around to find the best placement....
Such great fun!!!!.......

scrappy trips blocks 53 through 56

 It is time to show some more scrappy trips blocks...

 I have changed to putting the dark blocks in a different place on the block...
going from top left to bottom right............

 I am still continuing with all Sandy Gervais fabrics in these blocks...

It is a lot of fun to see other scrappy trips quilts all over the internet and flickr!!
I am linking with Pat Sloan's Show and Tell!

scrappy trips blocks 41 through 45

 Continuing on with showing my blocks for my scrappy trip around the world quilt....
I am mixing up Sandy Gervais fabric lines in each block now instead of keeping each block in the same fabric line as I did at the beginning............

I am linking with Connie at Freemotion by the River for Linky Party Tuesday...
And linking with Pat Sloan's Show and Tell Thursday......

scrappy trips blocks 36 through 40

 I am working on blocks for my scrappy trip around the world quilt.....
Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville has the directions for this...

I added a strip of Flirtations by Sandy Gervais to the previous block...

 Then by accident I mixed the Lollipop and Pumpkins Gone Wild together in the same block...
I had them in a box together and forgot I had done that...but it is okay...more scrappy..

 So I will probably do more mixtures of blocks.....

If you haven't started one of these....you better get at it....it is fun!!

AND...Be sure to check the Scrappy Trip Along flickr group for lots of fun ideas!!
There are over 1,000 members in that group!!
