I got started a little early for June's Friday Night Sew In. I'd chosen a task to get caught up on my Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks because I missed them the last two months when I was busy with house projects. I had intended to spend all evening on them, but after a couple of hours I got thrown into cleaning mode. My sewing room is a disaster and it was getting hard to work in there. It would be nice to have that room usable again so I can focus on my projects and not looking for things.
Anyway, I got started on my blocks for the Arlington Square quilt. I have been intentionally using uglies because I want this to be a really scrappy quilt and I think they give character. =) I may have to start cutting white fabric off of yardage because I've gone through nearly all my white scraps with all my recent scrap projects.
A great use of your scraps. They go together well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen. I really like your beanies.
DeleteEven if called "uglies", they surely do add pizazz to a quilt. The design is really cool too. When you finish getting your sewing room spiffed up, please come over and do the same for mine! Another disaster calling YOUR name! Ha!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, using the uglies! LOL. I did that with 2.5"x5" rectangles and ended up not liking them so I cut them down to 2.5" squares and made a scrappy quilt that was perfect! Chrisknits
