My weekend with friends and scraps

 I had a great and busy time over the weekend.

I saw a fun scrappy quilt on line and decided to have a go. A couple of friends came over to sew along too.

Sewing up our scraps into 9 patches, then making fancy blocks.

Doing the extra stitching row on the stitching and flip corners makes a bonus 2.5” square. Trimming them and making another pattern was exciting. I will end up with 48 or 56 squares depending how big I make my quilt.

Then we moved on to make a plastic front pouch.

I taught them how to make these using your own measurements depending on the fabric you have. It is done in a way that there are no exposed seams. Here are the 3 of them completed. Everyone was happy.

I made mine with a scrap of orange so I could link up with RSC .

Another scrap project in works

 With some more of scrap blocks being assembled I will have another quilt together soon.

These are some blocks that have been made.

Now I am assembling them… They will make a great top. 

I’m sure there will be lots of areas that will need quilts now after all the flooding.

Scrap sewing for Charity

 I have been asking my group for some help sewing some 2.5” scrap blocks. Once made I will sew the blocks together to make some tops.

My first top is together. I was also given a bag of fabric scraps and there was a big piece of fabric that will do for the backing. Now to cut the wadding and pass it on to a member who will quilt it.
