I really love rainbow quilts! When I saw this one on pinterest, it was love at first sight! Immediately I began pulling scraps to make this one. But when it came down to it, only 3 of the 12 fabrics ended up being from my scrap bin. Oh well, a scrappy quilt is on the todo list.
I did, however, use the remaining fabric of all colors on the back of this quilt. I've never pieced a back like this before and it took rearranging and rearranging to get it just right. Well, right enough for what I had to work with. It was either this or buy some gray to match the front. I don't think that would have been as fun as this colorful back.
Thanks for stopping by! Linking up with:
I love the colorful back, it definitely adds to the quilt. And the front is gorgeous as well. I totally feel your pain about using scraps. I have to wait until I have a banker's box full of scraps before I can consider trying to make a quilt just from the scraps.

ReplyDeleteHi Shannon - another great quilt! I love the use of gray on the front. The back is just as much fun as the front. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMy boys love this rainbow quilt. (They like to read over my shoulder.) Your backing is awesome. I love scrappy backs, but they do take more planning.
