I have been busy playing with scraps to make my fun little Gnome blocks:



and of course, the scrappy RSC blocks; pink for February and green for March:


I had one of my Guild members send me home with two bags of scraps and strips:

I had to start playing with them since I don’t have a lot of space to store anything and in short order I had scrappy blocks made. I did have to cut some yardage for my sashing:

I also finished my SAHRR (completely from the scrap bin or using leftovers from other projects or cutoffs from hst’s:

The other project I managed to complete to a flimsy was my Double Wedding Ring. It started with a gifted center panel. Then I did cut some yardage for my background (the grey fabric) and used scraps to make my arcs. Just need to get to the studio to finish this one on the longarm. I even have blocks made to make a couple of matching pillow shams. 😉

Thank you for visiting to read my post. I hope you’ve had a lovely St. Patrick’s Day and are finding the time to celebrate International Quilting Weekend by playing with your fabric and scraps! 😁 Carol
Looks like good fun Carol! Those are great scrappy blocks. Love the Double Wedding Ring, bet you are proud that it is nearly finished. Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks Wendy. I can’t believe how hard it was to just add whichever strip I pulled off the top of the pile instead of picking each colour. 😉

Thanks Gail. It seems I can always find something to make with scraps if I don’t have any other projects inspiring me 😉

Hi Roseanne. Yes I think this one has my name on it. It’s time I had a quilt on my bed I think. 🤗
