    I wouldn't mind more scraps. One of my projects that I am working on is a Bonnie Hunter pineapple quilt. The blocks finish at 5", and have about 46 pieces each, so in the beginning of each block, I can use very small pieces.

    Hi Red,

    Love all of the fun scrap quilty projects you've done! I'd love to take some of your scraps to free your guilt, if you want. It's amazing to me how many of you produce so many items so quickly. I'm still in the stage where I'm collecting fabric. Thanks for all of the eye-candy!

With my smaller pieces and strips I then made 110 4 1/2" crumb blocks and finally just got exhausted and bagged up the remaining scraps back in a bag. Sigh...but it was a good start. Still have reds, yellows, browns/blacks, greens, purples, pinks, and tons of whites! If I decide to just give a bunch away to free up my guilt, would any of you be interested in more scraps???

    Thanks for the compliments everyone! Those of you who would like some scraps, please pm me with your address. I'm still in the "separating" myself phase of being able to pass on some scraps without my insides screaming "NO"!!!!! LOL! So it might take a few weeks, but I feel it's a good thing to do.

    Hey Quiltermomma! I got home last night and found my selveges. Woo hoo, fabulous! Don't know which day they came cause we were at daughters for weekend. Funny I forgot to get tracking on yours too! Don't remember even what day I sent, but it was priority....hope you like your scraps, it took me longer to get sent cause I kept finding little cubby holes of scraps. Sheesh I had no idea I was stashing my scraps all over the place!

    I am already saving more for you if you like. I have a large canister that had licorice in it so will have a good smell when done. LOL. Most of those were long ones. Did I get them right for you? What do you use those for anyway? I have not received your package yet, looking forward to it.

    Yep, right on target! Yum, I love licorice so will look forward to those selveges! I am going to make a quilt with them so you can imagine how many I need.
    I will continue to look for scraps, I know there has to be more....unless my daughter has squirreled more than I thought, lol.
