Step 1...

Admit i am powerless over scraps....LOL

this is an inspiration picture pulled out of a magazine who knows when, but i've always liked it...could work well with my current solids pile...

when tidying up the drawer, this is what i found....a small stack of already-sewn 9-patches, some twosies, and a stack of 2" squares....these are getting busted first.

a little neater now, found some tan triangles to repurpose, idea formulating...plus the remaining already cut pieces, some 2" and 1.5" strips, few 2.5" squares.....the 2 small stacks in the front are bona fide scraps, ready for a purpose.  not as many as first thought so perhaps the stash will have to be raided...a good thing!

here are the 2" squares sewn into foursies, every last one!

some background squares and triangles, baste and machine quilt...flannel to use as batt and done!  i am on a roll with this challenge!  

at senior center friday picked up some panels and coordinating fabrics--we're making wheelchair quilts for vets at walter reed.  i am so humbled to do whatever i can for these brave, patriotic people.  my own ancestry includes many of the same who selflessly served our country, and our freedoms are no less at stake now.  

weather word is a sunny, spring-like week here....thank you phil!  

thinking phil's ex is not too objective and perhaps a teeny vindictive?  ***  did visit gym saturday and managed to get in my 30 min.  two hours of PT and one gym visit equal 150 minutes...that should keep the AHA happy.  a blessed sunday to all!
