I May Have A Scrap Problem... And A Time Problem!

Hi, all!

Well, once again I have not had time to do any scrappy sewing this week - but I don't feel too bad about that, because Instagram and Pinterest have been FULL of some fabulous inspiration that I really want to share with you!

First off, let's see what Instagram has to share...


Look at this fabulous string quilt Meredith made!!  And I have a feeling that wouldn't even make a dent in my strings...


And Meredith was really on a roll this week - look at this fabulous scrappy creation!  I believe she said she made it with 1800 2" x 3.5" rectangles - that's a lot of scraps!


Tracy, a fellow Middle Tennessee resident, was totally inspiring me  with her rainbow scrap challenge blocks and tops this week!  Solid scraps always abound at my place, but I don't think I could do anything as gorgeous as this!


This one, though, I think I could do!  Now to go dig through the solid scraps and see what I've got...


But first, maybe we should have a little heart - or a big one!  This quilt makes me so happy, not in the least because it would be so simple to make with stuff I have on hand....

And now let's turn to Pinterest - another treasure trove this week!


These two quilts have much in common, yet each has its own fabulous flavor!  Lots of little pieces - scrap buster score!!


 And finally, how about this fun triangle quilt?  I am pretty sure this one can be built on the kaleidoscope block pattern I used for the 12 Days of Christmas in July quilt.  Isn't it amazing how different color placement can change a block?  I want to make a whole quilt like this!  I love the vintage look it has.



Inspired?  Me too!  Let's go forth and conquer those scraps!!

Hugs!
