scrappin' it!

Hmmmmm


I seem to have aquired a small scrap pile.



Actually, I just had to move my small scrap container to a large storage/moving container. Something HAS to been done.

*** scraps multiply like gerbils***


In a post a couple of days ago (8/16 post) i showed small credit card size bags I made for my daughters' roomates.
That used about 6 small pieces...SHESSSSH what to do???
So i decided to start a coin quilt. Great way to use up lots of scraps. Mixing scraps with my FAVORITE-- unbleached cotton

(not to be confused with muslin-unbleached cotton has a linen look and feel)

ALL that being said...the top picture was taken AFTER i cut out all the above pieces.


YIKES I maybe be making quilts for ALL my daughters dormmates at college :)



There is a great tutorial on the QUILT TAFFY BLOG (no need to recreate the wheel)



Enjoy!
