I felt like I could finally clean up some in my sewing room having finished my placemat project. There were little piles of scraps and fabric all over the place.
I found a stack of fabric that I wanted to bag up for another day. I pulled out "the drawer I never talk about" to stuff it in there and was drawn to a few other bags that had some interesting colors.
I refrained and stuffed it back in the drawer and proceeded to sit and sew. One thing I can say about the placemat project is that it has been a great leader/ender project.
As I was sewing, I really felt like I needed one...

I decided to just use all those odd shaped triangles I saw in one of those bags together. I figured I could sew them up and just put them in the spare parts box. No harm...and not a new project!
After all, 2022 is the year to finish UFOs. And I really want to end the year with a low number.

I, of course, quickly sewed all the triangles up and then decided to add a few small scraps to them. Just some simple mindless sewing.

One thing I love about just sewing bits of color together is that it can build confidence in color choices. I pondered how these colors would look with a touch of red. So I can easily say I am just learning new color combinations at this point. Still not a project...Right?!?

However, I might need your help to explain how all these pieces up on my design wall are not a new project. At what point do I have to put it on my list? 😂
