I've taken a cue from you and have been doing the same. I came home Sunday from the Central Florida MQG retreat with the scrap bag. Today I sifted through it, cutting up 1" squares and 1-1/2" as leaders and enders. I haven't yet made your birch trees quilt, but I "get" why you're doing it! It's so difficult to see unloved scraps heading to the dump, when we KNOW they are quilt-worthy! There aren't enough years to rescue all the scraps though!

What I particularly love about this quilt is the bright backgrounds. I would have to purchase some bright solids since my stash has so few. Any recommendations on how to choose solids to put into a stash? When I see them at the fabric store, I usually get overwhelmed by the color choices so I don't buy any.Charlotte M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09017648602174503289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-31851289521609446422018-05-07T14:58:35.794-05:002018-05-07T14:58:35.794-05:00I love the variety of solids you've picked for...I love the variety of solids you've picked for this version! :DAlison V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01083271975458964740noreply@blogger.com
