You have no idea how long it took me to organize this!
There are piles of cut pieces ready for several different projects - a finished pumpkin seed block plus 2 more prepared for hand applique, a pile of leader/ender 3" spool blocks, some 1" strips for Omigosh, and some pieces for Carrie Nation blocks. That's a lot of black and white fun just waiting for me to sew my way through this month!
This week I sewed three Carrie Nation blocks and finished a red one from August, and liked them so much I am going to get them all out and put them on the design wall for Monday's post.
Check out more blog postings at SoScrappy to see what other quilters are making with their black scraps this month .
It really does take some time to find just the right project for each little bit, but it is SO satisfying to see the finished product. Your blocks are looking just adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove the Carrie Nation blocks. I keep telling myself that I need to get handle on my scraps, but it's too much fun to just sew and let the scraps fall where they may.
ReplyDeleteuhhh these look lovely, I need a few scrappy project... time to play with EQ!
ReplyDeleteI love the Carrie Nation blocks. I think that's going on my list for a scrappy quilt for next year!

ReplyDeleteI like the Carrie Nation blocks. Black is such a hard color--I just had so little 30's black.
ReplyDeleteWow, have you been productive! A whole lot of black and white loveliness happening here.
ReplyDeleteYou have all your parts prepped and ready to crank out a bunch of blocks when you have time to sew. Can't wait to see them all stitched up!
ReplyDeleteYour Black and white blocks are so scrappy. Love the varied backgrounds- hidden things in there. Nice to have a Scrappy day every week.
