WOW Love both Martina's & OKSEWGLAD's quilts.
I'm going to a Bonnie Hunter workshop next week. I get pretty inspired by her website, so I'm really looking forward to an in-person session. Hope to get lots of stash busting ideas. |
Oh my, you are the lucky one. Bonnie is one of my favorites, I read her blog daily, but have only made one of her patterns. I love the leader ender system and how she stores her stash and scraps. She is one busy lady. I'd love to go on one of her tours and take a class from her. Just enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

I think I get to be bad soon. (Isn't that the saddest statement? lol) I offered help in a Round Robin that needs a little support. So I am getting a wolf top and I have no more wolfie fabric. Oh drat the bad luck (jumping up and down). I get to buy something wild. Ahoooooooo.
OK, I like that style. You did a great job. I made 20 crumb blocks (6 1/2") this weekend just from the little pieces of stash in the plastic bags. Didn't even touch the two bins of scraps yet. It was really mindless sewing as well. The nice thing about the crumbs is that you just have to have a semi-straight edge and if the angle is not to your liking, whack it off. I whacked and hacked a lot. My trash can is full of snippets. (That's where I draw the line - I don't work with those teeeeny scraps and don't have the space to keep them.) |
I love mindless sewing, especially after intense stuff. I just put dark and light 2" squares together to ease my leader ender sewing. Sometimes it's the in between stuff that makes the other stuff fun.
Wild thing is how I'm viewing MadQuilter...lucky girl. |

The finishes look good, and I am jealous of the use of scraps. Right now I'm working my way through a quilt with houses. Not difficult and that's a good thing. I did have to buy 1/3 yard of two fabrics to get enough houses. They are all candy prints from a layer cake. I am so goofy, I trimmed the points off the layer cake pieces. Boy, was that layer cake ever off on some of the pieces!!

Grey goose or silver vixen? The latter sounds wilder.....
Love mindless sewing I have another scrappy project going with 1 1/2" squares and in between sewed up some squares--got tired of it and put it away til another day. Will take a while as it takes over 5000 squares not counting those used in connecting blocks. I've been sewing strips of 3, 4 and 5 which I can mix and match to make the longer strip sets. Here's a link to look at http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...c-t242958.html |
