I was able to do some cleaning pressing, and trimming of blocks finished this morning before I had to take mom to her pacemaker check. Tonight I was able to put together 3 blocks from 2.5 or smaller squares for a place mat. A friend gifted me the squares, (they all needed to be squared up, they were her leftovers). I have a few more to trim and figure a layout for before I turn them all into some kind of mat.
This morning while pressing strips and strings I came to a decision that anything less than 1 inch is now going to be tossed!!! I love making crumb blocks but I have enough scraps, and the small stuff I don't think I will miss them. Also all the salvages will be placed with the gardening stuff as ties for the grape vines.
Enjoy the night, I'm going to the TV room and work on my X-stitch. (UFO from 2006)
