This week, I dealt with a huge pile of scraps that has been bugging me for quite some time. We are cutting up scraps for the upcoming sew day, for items for our craft fair, for RWB string blocks and for my pinwheel blocks.
I ended up with 5 more framed pinwheel blocks. Not a lot to show for all the cutting I did but the pile of scraps is a lot smaller. I still have a lot more scraps to cut but it doesn't look quite so daunting!
Hoping for more progress next week!

Hurray for smaller scrap piles, and bigger piles of cute pinwheel blocks!
Cutting up and organizing scraps is time consuming, but such a good thing to do. I imagine you could get overwhelmed with yours pretty quickly, given the size of the nonprofit and everything that gets sent to you. Every pinwheel gets you closer to a new quilt! Have a relaxing Sunday, Cyndy!
I can relate to this. I've been cutting to make kits and I'm not done even though I've been at it all summer long. Sigh. There's an end to this. I haven't seen it yet, but there's an end to this, lol. Enjoy! ;^)
I too have been whittling away at a pile of scraps. When the pile diminishes, it is such a great feeling! I'm glad you are seeing the fruits of your labors!
What a great link-up party! Thank you for hosting!
Cutting scraps is always daunting. At least you made a bit of a dent.
