ALL my yellow scraps |
This week I went through my orange/yellow bin and pulled out all the yellows. Most of them were in a jumbled-up bag of very little pieces (what my ex-husband called scrippy-scraps). Now all the yellows I have are cut into usable pieces (or thrown into the dog-bed-bag). I have a few pieces of yellow yardage (most pieces are 1/2-yard-ish), but mostly just squares and strips now.
I will make the heart block and alternate in yellow, and the 6 log-cabin blocks. Not sure if I will do anything else with yellow this month, but I do have a lot of it, so I should probably figure out a design for a charity quilt that will use up a lot of 2" squares. Design suggestions welcome!
I am linking up with Scrappy Saturday at So Scrappy and Oh Scrap!
That's a pretty pile of yellows you found there! They'll make a great heart block!

ReplyDeleteYou're not required to sew with your least favorite color, but YELLOW really adds a bit of sunshine to a rainbow quilt. Just think! If you make your block and create a quilt, you may actually use up ALL the scraps. :o))
ReplyDeleteThe heart block design is a good choice for your squares. It's funny about our individual dislikes of certain colours, mine is orange.
