Scraptatstic Tuesday


I am linking up with June's Scraptastic Tuesday over at She Can Quilt.  Take a visit and maybe you will get some inspiration for those never ending scraps.

 

My project started with the 'found' 2.5" pinwheels.  Then I pulled out the left over solid skinnies from two prior projects.


To make them larger and more colorful, I pulled the left over 'dottie' strips.


I have a fun new baby quilt to add to the quilt guild charity box.  Finished at 40" x 48".  Batting was a cut off from a large quilt .  I buy my batt on a roll - king size, so there is frequantly a cut off at the ready for baby or lap size.


The backing was the last of an extra wide that I think has seen 6 quilts now.  And the end of one of my favorite stripe binding fabrics.


A 'freebie' quilt that cleared a lot of scraps from the various tubs.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

It is always fun to see what you are up to! You are so prolific...and so precise! You really are a great piecer and I get so inspired looking at your block projects. My piecing needs practice, but I can't stop appliqueing...

Congrats on a beautiful finish. If there was a scrap users certification out there, you would most certainly have achieved the level of master.

Great finish and I'm sure that someone will treasure it.

That turned out so cute. The quilt I'm about to finish up has 18 pinwheels and I had to re-do all but 5 of them I think. I kept sewing them up wrong. I'm bad.
