Here is my quilt for the Bloggers' Quilt Festival: "Zippers." I've been thinking about making this for a long time. All the scraps are not the same size. They are all wider than 3," trimmed down to 3" strips. Scraps are about 1.5"-2" high. So you just make long strips. Some are dark, light, dark, light. Some are all darks, or all lights. The only thing to think about is: "Is it dark or light?" Lots of the scraps are novelty fabrics. This is lots of fun. I'm doing a whole series, playing with the placement of darks and lights.

What an intriguing pattern! Lovely quilt.
I really like this quilt. It's on my to do list.
Very graphic and a very appropriate name!
This is a beautiful quilt. What an effective use of light and dark scraps. You should be very proud of yourself for just "thinking about this," and making it happen.
Cool quilt! I'm glad you made one and what patience you must have. I'd never get through it. It looks wonderful!
I love this quilt!! It's gorgeous!!!
I can't tell you how long I sat here looking at your beautiful quilt wondering why you called it "Zippers". Sometimes I really wonder about myself, I seem to be so slow. Very clever and so pretty, Karen!
Oh I love the zippers!
