Let’s Get Scrappy

Do you have tons of scraps?  Here’s a few patterns to help you control the overflow.

Scrappy Pinwheel will really show off your colorful scraps.  The pinwheels and pieced border are perfect for scraps. And it’s a small wall quilt, 19″ X 23″, so every bit of it can be made from scraps . . . it won’t take much for the inner border or for the binding.  You won’t want to stop at just one.

Scrappy Heart is shown in pastels but wouldn’t this look great with all different red hearts?  Who doesn’t have 9 different pieces of red in their scrap stash?  Or, if making as a gift for a friend, the hearts could all be their favorite color. Instructions included for fusible or machine applique – your choice.

 Oh My Stars, even the background is scrappy.  All different shades of gold – makes you feel like you did a great job!  Or, make blue stars.  Or make the background all scrappy blue for night-time and use your whites & cremes for the stars.

Potholder Potpourri is six different patterns for potholders.  You can use up a wide variety of scraps with these.  A quick finish will give you a sense of accomplishment, that bolstering feeling of fulfilled creativity, you’ll see your scrap pile diminish and you’ll have little gifts to keep on hand.

 All these patterns are from just one designer . . . Just My Imagination.  Browse QuiltersWarehouse and you will find so many more quilt patterns for scrappy quilts
