I havent been bloggy for almost all month, just nothing to say and a big lack of inspiration. The summer time blahs ---100+ degrees doesn't inspire much except trying to stay cool.
Anyway, I am still part of the New Project Challenge at
CATPATCHES and the new project I started in June was ,,,, are you ready?.. Working up my scraps! I got so tired of seeing bags of scraps around, always saved with the intention of doing something with them. Throwing fabric away just seems so wrong to me,, somewhere I read that if you think about it, it's like throwing $9.00 a yard fabric out the window. So, I save all of it and then, well, try to find something to do with them.
Anyway
I'm so proud of the progress,, there is a bag of strips,,
There is multiple bags of scraps by colors
And I cut all kinds of squares, too but I don't have a picture of those.
And this is what I still have to go thru ( I ran out of steam,, I am SO tired of scraps !!!!
I did find a lot of little bitty pieces, and I put those all in a bag and I'll make some dog beds again for the Humane Society.
OH! And I'm going to use old phone book pages and make some string quilts,,
reuse, recycle

Look at you go!
I'll just slip my big pieces in with yours so you can cut them down :o)
Keep going!! You've got a lot of beautiful quilts waiting to be made :o)
Yeah, I feel your pain. Sorting by color is very smart. I have two bins, one is strips and the other pieces. They get louder every day.
