    Yeah!!!!! I can't wait to see your pics. I'm going to show pics, but after I get my blocks together. Boy is it going to be hard to keep up with what fabric I've used and what I haven't.

    I'm cutting and down sizing more blocks to sew now. I might get to sew some. But I sure got a lot of cutting to do also. Wish all of the blocks would of been 1/5 size. I have to cut quite a few so I can spread the colors out and not have a repeat to often.

    @Linda - Yes, I would like to make the Postage Stamp quilt with no duplicates. It'll just take me a lot of time to get all the different fabrics. Thank Goodness for the swaps on this site ;)

    @Betty - That's way I thought I would start with dealing with my stash. I want a good variety for when I start sewing.

    On my way downstairs again. Got about another hour in this afternoon. And I even took some pictures.

    @Vicky K: it's fun too see so many different fabrics! The I'm doing now I found a handful of dupes so I just let it go.... Too much time to go back and unstitch and start over, then again, no one will notice but me :)

    Wow, everyone is getting a lot done! Can't wait to see pics!

    I haven't even got to my scrap stash yet. I'm down sizing charms from other swaps I did. And yes, I want a good variety too!!!

    I made a bunch of bag purses. So I have scraps from those up there I know. Plus other crafts. And I save all my scraps.

    I have a busy day tomorrow. So I better get busy cutting again.

    I'm not even gonna try. I figure there will be enough "random" and "wonk" the little bit of color repetition won't bother anybody. :D :D :D

    Good idea on containers and labeling them.
