I am almost embarrassed to admit that most of the pieces used to make the Big-T blocks were already units in the scrap boxes....plenty of 4 1/2" and 2 1/2" HSTs. I cut out the cheddar centers and dark blue units. I have made 20 (12 1/2" unfinished) Big-Ts.... had enough to make more, but I am stopping. It will end up being big enough for a full size bed.
Even the sashing -- I almost had enough, but will need to cut out more 2 1/2" neutral strips. The red blocks are cowboys, cowboy hats, and cowboys on horses -- seems there is a theme -- just trying to use up what was already there.
As you can see, I have no problem with scrappy quilts....they are my favorite. Linking up with Judy at Patchwork Times (host of the Scrappy Block Challenge)

This is going to be a very pretty quilt. It is amazing what we can make with our scraps.
Don't you love it when your scraps come together?? This is going to be a good looking scrap quilt.
No need to be embarrassed! I call that Serendipity!! A lot of your work was already done and you are ending up with a beautiful quilt. Love it!
You really went to town with this one! It will be a lovely quilt
Hey, a part is still a scrap until it goes into a quilt. You seem to have an eye to balance the values in your scrap quilts. I'm not there yet....
It's gorgeous, Jamie! I wish I had your eye for design...
You just might inspire Judy L with all those T Blocks this month. I love the stars as Sashing. Good idea to use the theme fabrics. You can see them in the 4.5" squares. Too pretty to cut smaller.
What a great scrappy quilt. Stopping is the hardest part.
