Not too recently, I had my blue scrap bin out. After sorting out some pieces I wanted, I realized the bin was still so stuffed and overflowing, I could not slide it back into its home.
It has sat in the middle of my sewing room floor waiting for me to do something about it.
After much thinking, I finally came up with an idea. Most of my darker blue scraps are wider strings. I also have a lot of dark blue leftover bindings already cut at 2.5" wide. So, I decided to cut them to 8.5" lengths and use some 1.5" red, orange and gold squares to create some flip corners on the ends. These small squares will also help me use up a lot of the tiny scraps in my warm color bins.
Two problems addressed.
- This linky party is for any scrappy project - It can be in-process or a finished piece.
- You can link up your blog post (not your homepage please) or Instagram photo from the past week that features your use of scraps.
- If you are linking to a blog post, I ask that you link back to my blog somewhere in your post. So if you are writing about scraps, just get into the habit of including a link as there will be a linky party available every week!
- If you are using Instagram, please use the hashtag #ohscrap.
- This is a party so remember to socialize and comment on the posts of others.
- Following my blog is not necessary but it sure would be great if you do!
