Haunted by the evergrowing box of scraps I have placed out of sight in my sewing room, I decided to organize them. Trim them, cut them down to usable, easily accessible sizes. The whole time, I had to fight the thought, "What a waste of time". As I did this, I pulled scraps to make a Bullseye Quilt. But I was so sick and tired of scraps. I wanted to move on to something else. I decided to try a similar idea, but less labor intensive, and just used squares and topstitching. As it turned out, it's really a cute quilt! Better that I expected.
I quilted it with these interlocking straight lines (also more labor intensive than I expected).
But I'm pleased and now that my scraps are in order, whenever I DO make that Bullseye, it should go pretty quick.
Quilt On!
