you can make a pretty quilt out of them iam sure. When i have small scrapes i use the dryer sheets after they have been used start in center of dryer sheet and just keep sewing scrapes on it until you have the dryer sheet full and then trim dryer sheet to 6in by 9in

I read all 11 pages and kept coming back to this post. You made the most beautiful, tiny blocks I have ever seen. The precision with both the color coordination and matching your points are amazing.

Celeste, I had spent about two weeks organising a refuse sack full of bits, alot of these fabrics were left over from my first sampler quilt, and bits I have collected in the two years since I started quilting, alot came from my friends here on the board last year :/quote]

I can't believe you've only been quilting 2 years. I've been quilting for 7 years and I'm NO WHERE NEAR where you are!! Simply beautiful. I so enjoy your threads, they keep me sewing. I work really hard to get things to look okay....you make impossibly hard look incredibly easy!!

Well everyone you make me blush :oops: :oops: :oops: Thanks so much for your lovely comments :D

I will make this into a quilt....eventually, I have other more pressing quilts to make, especially a wedding quilt for my eldest son & soon to be DIL :D OH and a baby quilt for a friend started, not finished but needs to be lol!!

So inbetween these projects I can continue to play with my scrappy quilt and maybe over the summer I will have enough to make a kingsize for our bed :D

Your blocks are beautiful! You could make a sampler of all the blocks. If you wanted the use the scraps, you could crazy patch a bordr or blocks to fill areas. Great job!
