Monday making - tiny baskets

This week I completed a small quilt top.

Tiny little baskets....

Or do they look like handbags??

🙂

I loved making these little blocks using some TINY bits of fabric!

Every little piece is precious.

Monday Making with scraps

After making a few LONG and SKINNY

quilt blocks.....

I put them together into a quilt!

Adding a bit of red made this quilt really shine!

I am slowly using up a LARGE stack of

 6 1/2" squares handed down to me recently.

:)

I was also able to fill a bowl with MY KIND of happiness.

SCRAPS!

I was able to get a NEW quilt onto my daughter’s bed this week.

Yeah!

The quilt top has been folded up...waiting.....for quite a while now.

It needed just one more row to get it long enough.

The row was added and I even got it quilted!!!

I was so happy to get this finish in using LOTS of happy scraps!

Pink.blue.yellow.green.white.

Scrappy quilts are THE. BEST.

Does anyone else own stockings like these?

We have a few from Aunt Kathleen....

Made MANY years ago.

We pull them out every year...but there’s not enough!

I finally found a pattern that wasn’t too intimidating...

And so far....I’ve made three!

Two following the pattern...

And ONE with my own simple design.

🙂

I need SIX MORE in order to have one 

For all the kids and grandkids!

Whew!

We’ll see how that goes.

This is a mashup of some recent

Hand-me-down fabrics.

Mostly 6 1/2” squares.

Some of the fabric was quite ugly.

Do YOU use ugly fabrics?

I feel sorry for those poor uglies.

It’s nice to slip them into scrappy quilts!

 I’m calling the block Disappearing squares.

Not a very catchy name. LOL!

More info about this block on my youtube channel.

I needed a quick THANK YOU gift this week.

My scraps and orphan blocks didn’t disappoint me!

These two potholders were so quick and easy!

Thank goodness for leftovers.

🙂

I love the signs of spring in my back yard.

What do you like most about spring?

I worked on a scrappy quilt this week.

Love the pink and green!

I used this old antique quilt as my inspiration.

See that poor old block in the upper left?
