proof that the stash IS getting used up is this flimsy that got flung to charity just this week....nearly all those scrappy 9-patch blocks have found a home...
in september 2 lap robes were made with these blocks and this month's is a 72x78 flimsy. so happy that they are no longer stuck in an elfa drawer. this was a leader/ender project long ago and wish i could say the 2.5" square shoebox was empty but not quite. the 2.5" strips shoebox is overflowing so i'm pulling from that for the 365 blocks, which won't make a dent obviously. but there is progress busting stash that is downright fun and rewarding. and a button i recently found at a local quilt shop says it all....

Wonderful scrap creation.
ReplyDeleteThat is the kind of quilt I keep telling myself I need to be doing as a leader/ender, but it doesn't seem to happen. I am far too easily distracted!
Wonderful what you created just from leftovers--also nice to know that donating tops is a way to help especially when you don't enjoy the quilting as much as piecing.
ReplyDeleteI do love scrappy, still want to get my scraps cut up according to Bonnie's guidelines, just need to get started.
