As a scrappy quilter , people frequently ask
" Where are the quilts those scraps come from?"
and " Do you cut up yardage for pieces?"
Wellllll.... the scraps come like
a radar speeding ticket,
out of the blue, but much less expensive!?!
A phone call and a drive by and I end up with
Christmas in the spring!
A friend of a friend directed this beautiful bunch of
scraps to my door.
Each organized bundle is secured with some large strips
and is like a packet of inspiration!!!
The biggest detriment to scrap usage is wrinkles
( someone said, but I think it is motivation)
so these came all nice and flat!
Sew much fun to be had!!
I finished a trip around the sun not too long ago and
a squishy bag showed up in the mail.
What did I find inside?
Some beautiful oranges and colorful pinks, a great way to start a birth day!
Another cotton surprise came around that time too!
Gave a buddy a ride and she came with a package of scraps!!
Leftover greens from St Patrick's day wall hangings!
Again, sew much fun!!
I wont be running out of supplies any time soon!
It is a good thing I am at a retreat this weekend,
I can make a tiny nibble into
my scrap mountain of goodness!
Stay safe and Scrap on!
