    It's Been a while.

    Hi everyone, its been some time since I been on here. But its been busy lol. Now my husband has given me a challenge (lol). He says if I use my scraps up pretty much then I can remodel my sewing room and get material.
    So I need help ideas please. Any idea any pattern.
    Thanks and have a great day

    Look at the latest mystery quilt...it's scrappy and uses a lot of scraps.

    There will be another scrappy mystery starting in a week too.

    Depends on how many scraps you have and the sizes of them. If you have teeny size scraps, you could be in trouble!

    Sounds like a great deal and wonderful motivator to whip out some tops...charity or family...get'r done Judy!

    I googled quilting with scraps and the above is just a few of videos relating to using scraps. I use scraps for foundation paper piecing as well as making hexies. Hope this gives you some ideas to use up those scraps.

    Go through Bonnie Hunter's free patterns on her site www.quiltville.blogspot.ca Many of her patterns can be used for scrap quilts.

    Try www.quiltville.com, www.quilterscache.com, www.allpeoplequilt.com, www.quiltmaker.com, www.fatcatpatterns.com, the list goes on! Lots out there.
    You could do scrappy pineapple blocks, 4-patch and 9-patch blocks, even crumb blocks with your smallest pieces.
    Happy stitching!
    Be a blessing to others, as you may entertain angels unaware!
