scrap fun!

My friend Lisa and her Daughter Caroline stopped by my studio after the NYC MODS meeting and we played a bit in some fabric... ( of course!)   As she was cleaning up to leave I told her should could definitely leave her scrap lay on my table.... because why not infuse a bit of someone else's fabrics into my scrap bins!!

Not more then 5 minutes after she left...
this happened.


 And shortly after that, this happened...


Gotta love those scraps!!

    I got my DWR Quilts book, I read it cover to cover....It's so cool that you put stories of the meaning of your quilts in there and it's not just "how to" reading ! Your scrap hexies are lovely eye candy...Lisa does have some pretty fabric !

    Inspiring Video! I've been playing with my scraps lately and made some string blocks. It was fun and easier than I thought. They also looked more usable and interesting than I thought they would. Thanks for your ideas.

    Love what you produced in your play time! I was leaning towards sorting all my scraps into colour drawers etc. but now see that it's ok to just have the whole lot in one great big happy looking bin!

    I throw all my scraps in a big box like that too! I was feeling guilty and thinking I should cut them up into strips and squares, but it feels like wasting fabric since I might need that little eighth inch for an applique piece or triangle.
