Monday

Today I'm playing with blue and brown.
2 1/2"x2 1/2".
Another baby quilt.
I told you there are lots of babies this year!!!

I'm using this old bag of scraps.
I LOVE this little bag!!!!
It was SOooo worth cutting
 little 2 1/2" squares here and there
after projects.

I have a Treasure trove of
little squares to use!!!!

I'm making some simple nine patches with color....

and some with white.
See my scrappy whites??
Ooooh! the beauty of that little bag!!!

Here's the beginning.
I even found a fun border fabric that perks it up a bit.
Whoo hoo!!!! For a scrappy Monday!!!!

  2. Having cut scraps is like having a gold mine in your quilt room! I also keep a baggie of leftover binding to sew together for a scrappy binding for a scrappy quilt. I used it for the first time for binding a Christmas present this year and how nice it was to not have to cut binding but just put the leftover strips together that I wanted!

  6. Only a baggy? Nothing easier, yet more captivating than a scrappy 9-patch. Great border print for a baby quilt.
