I have all these scraps from the herringbone squares baby quilt I made. The fabric is from Jenn Ski's Ten Little Things collection and it is so fun. Because of that I just can't throw away all those scraps. Cutting all those angles left so many of them that I sewed them together and made big blocks out of them. There were also a few strips left that I didn't use when making the herringbones that I used those too. So now I have these crazy squares and I don't know what to do with them. Amazingly, I discovered something about my design board. It really sparks inspiration. First I put the blocks up on the board. Then I discovered a sort of size pattern among the blocks. So I put like width blocks in a column. Before I knew it, I had something that could be sewn together into a quilt top! Now I just have to decide if I am going to frame them in another fabric. I have plenty more from the Ten Little Things line or leave them as is. I think I will call this one Scraptastic because it sure is.
