Scrap Sorting

 I hope your morning has found you well & off to a productive start


I'm picking up where I left off last night sorting my fabric totes


This is tote #1 it is mostly scraps but a few yardages got in the mix  ,there are 3 more totes in the closet of the sewing room lol


these are left over strips from binding quilts, should I turn them into binding strips or jelly roll strips 🤷


this pile will easily produce 5" squares & possibly enough left over for 2 1/2"-2" squares


all in this pile will easily produce 2" squares



this is the scapeist pile,sizes vary for projects ranging from string blocks to block centers to journal pages etc.


beginnings of an ugly fabric pile 🤣 I have lots of ugly fabric in the carport that was gifted to me ,I seen on a  Just Get It Done Quilts video where she takes ugly fabrics & fabrics you know you'll never use & turn into a quilt by cutting them onto large squares  12-18" then cut those at an angle &sew together then do opposite & keep going smaller & smaller till you like it 😄

On the scap sorting I've seen a few makes different size blocks as well as strips from their scraps 50% of me wants to do that lol do you do that with your scraps?  I guess what's holdings me back is these scraps have been rotated into at 5 or not more quilts,they refuse to die 🤣
