On my design wall is the little quilt I finished for my friend. We decided to name it Skittles because of all the bright colors.
For the past couple of days I've been sifting and slicing up my scraps. This was my scrap pile a few days ago and I'm tired of tripping over it.
I've made a lot of progress. The pile is now gone and I have a few tubs of sifted scraps. I'm now working my way through them ironing and slicing them into strips and squares and tucking them into my new scrap saving station.
I'm trying to wrap up the year with all my in-progress quilts finished and my sewing room cleaned up. I'd like to start 2024 with a clean slate.
Linking with up
all the quilts are so pretty! looks like you are making scrap progress! :)
ReplyDeleteGood job on the scrap progress. I like the Let It Bloom panto--I may have to order it!
ReplyDeleteI've become a huge fan of Christy Dillon's pantographs. I've loved every one I've ever tried.
DeleteI love the Let it Bloom panto. I have one similar to that I love that also has butterflies and bees. So much fun to use lovely patterns like this. Great job on making it through your scrap pile. Good luck with the new system.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to wrap up my makes, but I have 9 items that have followed me through the years, and I doubt I can get 9 done in time for the new year! Good luck with your attempt.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you can get most of them done. Good luck!
DeleteI have that Let It Bloom panto too. It is a pretty one! And I think I have quite a few other designs by her.
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts turned out beautifully, the quilting really works with each. Good luck with your scrap project. I've embarked on that chore too, it seems never ending!
ReplyDeleteYou got a giggle out of me with your scrap pile. My scraps are in bags, buckets, and drawers......tried a few times to organize them but would rather be sewing.
ReplyDeleteGreat quilts, Sharon! I love the Christys' quilt motifs! I've not had a bad one yet! I put my scraps from projects in large baggies. Now I need to get a cabinet for the baggies! LOL Thanks for sharing on Monday Musings!
