Recently we had an excellent speaker at our guild about scrap quilts. Man, did it make me get the scrap bug. I want to make monochromatic slabs from all my scraps and put together a modern top like all the ones she showed.
Uh, except I don't have scraps. I rarely piece, most of what I like to do is quilting, so I've spent the past 2 years on a single quilt, and it was from a single cut of fabric. The few quilts I have pieced, I don't buy extra. I have a bit of a 'stash' but it is still small enough the few quilters I know have looked at it and laughed at me calling it a "stash". So even if I cut a piece off all of those fabrics, it doesn't give me much.
I'm so sad
There just really don't appear to be scrap quilts in my future unless I start collecting, and I just don't think I can spend the money on charms and fat-eighths just for the ability to have scraps
But man- those scrap quilts were cool.
