Isn't it amazing what we can make from "leftovers"?<br /><br />What I learned this year is that my scrap monster is a shifty beast, always taking on new forms and sizes. So I've vowed to be more flexible in how I store my scraps. No more buying new containers! Instead I'll keep resorting things into the containers I already have, or into repurposed Kleenex boxes. After last week's humdinger of a cold, I've got a new batch of those, alas :(Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378425196583923775.post-8726768914978415132016-12-29T13:22:14.291-06:002016-12-29T13:22:14.291-06:00Well I pretty much spend the whole year making scr...Well I pretty much spend the whole year making scraps because I have to design 25 quilts before june 2017 (ahhhhhhhh) so hopefully 2017 is the year when I actually tackle my scraps!!!

I learned so much! My favorite quilt is the one I made with the random scraps cut into 2 1/2 inch strips.

I have made new purchases when I should have slapped my hand, but it was ON SALE--haha! Can't resist a sale. However, thanks to you I've organized my scraps into bins & boxes this year so now I just need to camp out in my sewing room for the winter & make some kits for projects that I can easily grab & sew. Thanks for all the inspiration you give me, Sarah, and happy 2017!SherryBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01392023610802752316noreply@blogger.com
