Brukar ni ta till vara på era scraps och skära ner dem till mindre rutor? T ex 2 inch rutor? Jag gör det och sen vet jag inte vad jag ska göra med dem. Kan ju inte bara sy frimärksquiltar av alltihop 🙂
Do you save your scraps and cut them down to smaller blocks? For example 2″ blocks? I do this and then I don´t know what to do with them. You just can´t sew postage stamps quilts of them all 🙂
På bloggen Wedding Dress Blue (scrolla ner på sidan) pågår just nu en quilt-along. Quilten vi syr heter Calico Rose och den består av…….just det……..2″ rutor!!!!! Vi har inte kommit så långt än, bara sytt ihop en del av rutorna till större block, 4 x 4. Du kan själv bestämma hur stort täcke du vill sy och det går även att använda mindre eller större rutor 🙂
At the blog Wedding Dress Blue (scroll down) you can follow a quilt – along. The quilt we are sewing is called Calico Rose and we are using……….guess what……2″ blocks!!!!!! We haven´t got so far yet, just pieced some of the squares into bigger blocks, 4 x 4. It´s up to you to decide how big a quilt you want to do and ,of course, you can use smaller or bigger squares if you want 🙂
HÄR kan du se den färdiga quilten. Nästa uppgift kommer i början på maj (10:e)! jag länkar också till EvaJ, måndag, Visa och berätta. En inspirationsblogg för oss alla!
HERE you can see the finished quilt. Next set of directions will be in the beginning of May (10th)! I also link to EvaJ, Monday, Show and Tell. She´s an inspiration for all of us!
I make two sizes, a 5″ square and a 2.5″ square. That way, I can combine them for a different look. Trouble is, I’m very behind with all my scrap sorting, and need to spend some time cutting…

I try to cut everytime I have leftovers from the project I´m working on!

That’s so organised! The best I can manage is to bundle everything up and tie it with a piece of selvedge!

I love Wedding Dress Blue’s scrap patterns–so far I’ve made only one though.

As I go through my scraps this year, I’m cutting 2″ blocks. I plan to start sewing them up next year.

It´s always nice to have a plan 🙂
