I May Have A Scrap Problem - Some Inspiration for the New Year!

Hi, all!

Well, as before, there hasn't been any sewing going on around here - just a lot of packing!  Although today I did go through my 5" and 10" squares (all cut from my scraps) and pull together enough to make a quilt for a gift...


I'll need to get a move-on to get this one done before it's needed, so I will be doing a little sewing each day, I guess! 

And now, how about some inspiration to get you interested in using up those scraps?  All of these came through on Instagram in the last week or two...


I love this baby quilt of wonky stars!  Such a fun way to use up your scraps...


Look at all those tumblers!  I've always wanted to make a tumbler quilt, but it's still on the bucket list...


And how about these cute little snowmen, all snugged up under a patchwork blanket! 


I really love all the movement in this top!


I think it's the color that appeals to me most about this one, but it's certainly clever with multiple sizes of economy blocks and stripes!

Now I want to go sew!  Maybe I'll get a chance tomorrow...

Hugs!

Sarah

  3. I actually love going through scraps more than whole yards. LOL I think it's always the possibility of finding something I didn't know I had. (or didn't remember!)
