Spring Cleaning

After reading Tracey's post over at The Block Party Guild,

I felt compelled to deal with my catch bin of scraps.

Maybe with a LITTLE spring cleaning...it will come faster!

From flowing over to...


Almost empty.

WHY do I keep the tiny scraps I do!!


I cut what I could for another Fabric Fusion as I loved the last one I made.


And with a little 'LOST' on the Ipad this mindless task went quickly!!

Not sure why it's red...possessed perhaps???


Before you know...

I had neat little pile of charm/block squares ready to be bagged for next quilting retreat!


With a clean mind and sewing room I started on my next hand project.


With the use of my extension table, Ottlight, and Fabric Fusion pen...

the start of a new Christmas quilt!!


I have visions of Blues and Silvers dancing in my head for this one!

I know I should really concur with Shirley Pederson on this as she had incredible taste!!

Something in Stonehenge Silvery White


with a little Moonrise Starry Night!!



Begin in the snow...and end in the snow!!
