I've been doing more reorganizing which involved some scrap processing. One jar full now cut down into either the scrap barrels or for specific leader/ender projects. The pretty old glass jar now holds selvedges. I have always saved those and shipped off to others, but I have a small project I would like to do at some time.
The very messy string tote was gleened for those leader/ender projects.
Very happy that this is now neat and tamed - I hate making string blocks so glad most has gone into feeding other projects.
And I thought I had used all my triangles up. Some are squared up , most are sewn, some bagged as left overs from specific projects. Everything from 1.5" to 4.5" unfinished. I am giving these away! You have to take them all. So if you are interested, just note in a comment. Only shipping in the US - closing comments on Thurs, July 23 (8pm est) and pull winner that evening.
Since I am trying to tame the 1.5" barrel (I added more with my reorg), I will work on more 16-patches. I need 84 and have 50 done. Hopefully pedal to the metal will produce 20 more today.
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon
Nice job on the clean-up, Sharon. I love nothing more than Bonus HSTs and would happily take them off your hands! Best of luck on meeting your 16-Patch goal for the day.
ReplyDeleteNo HSTs for me, please, but I wanted to congratulate you on getting everything all tidied up.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks fantastic Sharon. Great job on the cleanup.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have the HST's and they would definitely be put to good use. I am working on a project now from my leftovers and would be very happy to add these to mine. Thanks so much for the awesome giveaway.
It's great to take the time to organize and find things to use for new projects. Everytime I start to reorganize my scraps, I make an even bigger mess. I have to admit, I love playing with the scraps even if I don't accomplish anything. The HSTs look like they could go into some fun projects. I'm sure there are lots of quilters out there who would love to have them (not me of course).
ReplyDeleteI always love playing with triangles! I love how tidy your scraps look!
ReplyDeleteY8u are very good with your scrap organising! You have made great blocks.
ReplyDeleteOooo playing with someone elses stash...I'm in. Hst can be so fun.
ReplyDeleteGreat cleanup. Those 16 patches are so cute.
Love half square triangles. Would love to have some from someone else’s fabric. dorthac at aoldotcom. So nice of you to share.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to give your HSTs a new home! Teaching my daughter to sew.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be in the running for your scraps too. Your 16 patches are adorable. I haven't been using my machine for a while since I have been doing handwork, but that looks mighty tempting!
ReplyDeleteThe best part of cleaning is finding "new" old projects. I would love to use up some of your HSTs. I often make/donate quilts to those who need a bit of comfort and warmth in the winter months. Thank you! maryc76904 at yahoo dot com
