Lots of fun with scraps this month as I worked with some bonus HST's leftover from a wedding quilt I made last year and scrap strips from the stash.
These are "blanks" that will be used to make Christmas stockings from.
The three 'blanks' made from squares came about because I ended up with too many strip sets and just couldn't see them going to waste or ending up back in the UFO bin.
Two of them will end up going for commissioned order that is due around the end of July. The remaining ones will be finished off and sold.
Scraps leftover from cutting the stockings will end up in quilted postcards.
Kate and Gun host a monthly blog hop featuring the use of scraps. Check out what everyone in the hop has done with their scraps this month.

Gratitudes:
1. For the blessing of commissioned work and how it is abundant this year
2. For a stash that has most any color and type of fabric that I could want
Pretty use of scrapes.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I never seem to get any leftover blocks to do clever things with, and this is such an original idea. They remind me of Delft tiles, so pretty.
ReplyDeleteYes! I was going to say they reminded me of little Delft tiles too. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love the two triangle blanks, they are wonderful! I have been keeping my "bonus" triangles from blocks and I hope to do something with them. This gives me some ideas!
