Started my first "new" quilt for the year. Just a simple checkerboard alternating color and white. I am doing color ways, so will end up with a rainbow quilt of some sort. Using my 2.5s collection and scraps of white. Easy, peasy and will delete scrap white/white pieces that are too small for other purposes. I will be checking the stash for backing in a week or two. Likely will be frankenbatting to diminish batting stack too!
By the way, and this may be too late for many of you, but I used some of those long, narrow pieces of batting to wrap around fragile Christmas decorations before I packed them away for the year. Also, cut some batting scraps into small pieces to put in my ornament boxes, you know those sturdy boxes with dividers for individual glass balls you find that this time of year. The individual compartments are often too large and the ornaments rattle around. But not any more.
Repurposed batting that would otherwise go in the trash.
