Scrap Happy May

It’s again time for showing off our scrap projects!  ScrapHappy is open to anyone using up scraps of anything – no new materials. It can be a quilt block, pincushion, bag or hat, jewelry, dolls, socks or a sculpture.   Anything made of scraps is eligible.

If you'd like to join us and use up your scrap collection, instead of sitting around in bags, etc, why not join us on the 15th of each month? Either e-mail Kate at the address on her Contact Me page, or leave a comment on her Scrap Happy Post.

I continue to work on the Potato Chip blocks for my guild's Community Service.  Last month my daughter and I made up 6 kits to take to our 5th Wednesday sew day.  We take our machines and either quilt, or put together a top.  The six kits took up 1224, 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 pieces.  I need to get cutting up scraps again.  I have some blocks done   I have 2 more blocks to do, these are flannel.


I also continue to use scraps in the Scrappy Meets Thrift Challenge on Instagram.  I have a bunch of scraps cut out.   I am using my Civil War reproduction scraps.  This is hosted by Taryn @reproquiltlover.


These are this weeks 2 inch economy blocks.  

I am also participating in the 100 hexies challenge on Instagram by @sewfoxymama.    These are some I made this week.


That's it for this month.

      it is always satisfying to use up the small scraps, like your hexies and the economy blocks.
