when i posted this, neglected to list my 12 monthly scrap tasks....i've listed them in no particular order, but will be starting with the orange mod flimsy in january to empty the shoebox and get it in the "baste and quilt" pile. it's half done so should be a quick finish. the scrap basket project is listed twice for obvious reasons.
1. cut up scrap basket scraps....empty basket
2. finish inchie project in progress using 1.5" scraps and empty drawer!
3. empty selvedge shoebox making potholders
4. make scrappy DWR flimsy using scraps
5. finish repro bricks project and empty drawer
6. pull out 2.5"strips shoebox and get a top done
7. sew up 4-patches using 2" squares already cut
8. cut orange peels from jo morton charms
9. finish up cheddar/indigo scraps on a wallhanging
10. make flimsy triangle plaid scraps
11. finish mod orange flimsy and empty shoebox
12. cut up scrap basket scraps...empty basket AGAIN!
this list is pretty daunting but won't consider it etched in stone with some wiggle room. whatever scraps get used up will be a plus! now off to start my household to-do list and finish another UFO before 2018 arrives!
Dealing with scraps would free up some serious space in my room, still considering joining this challenge. A "no buy" challenge for me for sure......for at least 3 months. Happy New Year Grace.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have your work cut out for you--or at least a good plan in place for getting it all cut out! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, my friend!
#6 & 7 look like Irish chain possibilities. 😉
