Scrap cutting
#21
I have been cutting down scraps off and on for two weeks and no sewing. Pictured is one of my trash bags as I cut down the scraps from the last three years. I have stripped, squared, rectangled and tumblered - the last two terms are made up quilter words. Will post more pics of my cut-downs when finished with the last two boxes.

Here are some pics of my last few scrap cutting sessions. 2" strips, 2.5" strips, 3.5" strips, bricks, 5" squares, 2.5" squares and 2" X 3.5" rect and the last bag of scraps before cleaning up. I have decided to take a rest from the "quilt size projects" other than the charity quilts. Have several to put binding on and thanks to the QB, I have learned how to machine attach the binding. Yeah! I will work on the smaller things like totes, wall hangings and table runners but needed leaders/enders for this break. On my design wall is a scrappy brick (3.5" X 6.5" rect) just offset pattern - nothing fancy as it will be a utility quilt. I have uncovered a few more scraps (just a small tote) and they will be in the next round of cutting. But for now, some quick and fun projects.
