Yesterday's outing to the grocery store led to the purchase of this FABULOUS magazine. (No wonder my grocery bills are so high!) I love scrap quilts and I especially love the one on the cover here. It looks like a great way to use up some stash of blues and creams. Don't have a lot of yellow but I could certainly do something about that!
The Chinese coins quilt really caught my eye, too. Something about the pieced sashing strips I really like. And star quilts and flying geese always trip my trigger.
I am trying out a new scanner so the photos could be a lot better. This scanner is part of a 3-in-1 printer and is not as easy to use as my old one. Well, if all else fails, I could read the directions!

Ouch, bad news about the storm damage. Enjoyed the photos from the Scraps magazine, though.
I saw the aftermath of the storms on the news today. Looks like it was a real doozy but am glad you are safe.
Looks like lots of future projects for you in tht magazine. I need to see if I can find a copy.
Oh, I heard about the storms and am glad to know that you came through well. Guess I'll just have to stop my complaining about weather *s*
What a great magazine. Scrap quilts are just the best.
Great issue, I agree
thats Megans quilt! Starburst...

how cool is that!
Yes, terrible news about the storms - for a while WE were getting blown sideways, but not by tornadoes.
Love that last scrappy star/goose quilt. When the wind dies down I may just have to find that magazine. That last scrappy one looks like something our friend Bonnie would make, from Quiltville.com
I am so glad you are fine. The weather seems to get stranger and stranger every year. One really wonders what is behind it. I've read several theories - each wilder than the one before. I sure hope things calm down soon.
I picked up that magazine yesterday also - it is a winner!
Every time I hear about tornadoes in usa I think about if anyone of my bloggerfriends lives there. I'm glad you are safe.
The magazine looks great. The one with yellow flowers really caught my eye too. But I have to wait a bit before the mag is in the shop here. Alays months behind you LOL
Uh, storm. Not good.
This issue looks GREAT! Wishing I had it. I wonder if I can find it now that the words out... ;)
I bought that issue today - the cover quilt and the blue one were my favorites but I doubt I'll make either one. Glad you escaped damage in the storms.
That was quite a night. I still can't believe there wasn't a warning issued. We spent Friday helping friends clean up. They lost part of their roof. Scary stuff!
ooough I have never seen this magazine title before - but I dont' get to go down the magazine isle very often when I am grocery shopping... I am usually "out of time" with the little ones. Heck, I don't get to the grocery often anymore!
I love that RWB quilt on the cover just a small part of it showing but those RWB geese caught my eye. and that last scan you shared is scrapOlishious! I clicked and made it larger and love it... although I wouldn't have guessed those to be flying geese... ? they look odd for some reason to me. maybe b/c it is after midnight here? LOL
anyway, I am glad you played with your scanner adn shared... for folks like me who other wise would have never gotten to sneak a peak at this magazine!
Love from Texas! ~bonnie
was at Wal-Mart today and they didn't have that magazine :(
do you know if they have a website?
