The biggest basket of scraps were the hand dyes and now they have been reduced to this. I have strips for a couple of string quilts and lots of blocks. Next I tackled the symmetry scraps and ended up with this. I think that I might be able to make some cool quilts mixing the symmetry and hand dyes together in a few quilts. I will plan some quilts another time. For now I'm just happy to have things organized. I also got all of the papers off this quilt so I'm ready to load it today and think about the quilting. I'm still leaning towards a pantograph so I don't have to deal with the seam bulk.

Good for you to get the scraps all cut into usable pieces. I am a long way from that with my scrap pile.

I can imagine a lot of possibilities with the hand dyes and the symmetry fabrics. They should look lovely together.

Some of the cut up scraps look like they were cut with special templates, is this correct? How did you determine how to cut these? Did you start with a particular size in mind? Thanks for the info. Your scraps are beautiful!

The month of February I am tackling decluttering, purging, and reorganizing my creative space. It turned into a bigger job than I thought (of course it did! lol). I'm saving my scraps for last because they are completely out of control. This will be so nice once I'm better organized. Have a great weekend. Comments are closed.
