My blue scrap drawer was bursting at the seams!
So I opened it up and began to sew strips.The phone book pages made a great foundation!!!
First I had to trim them square.
I think I'll be using this technique next month when
I host a sewing day at church.
We'll be making quilts for the
kids graduating from high school.
True confession:
I spent more than 15 minutes...
but I didn't have to think at all!!!
That's a blessing!!!
I will say the blue scrap drawer seems to have exploded!!!Looks to me like there's more here than when I
BEGAN!!!!

When I start in using my scraps, they "fluff" up.
I think you will have a nice bunch of quilts for the graduates.
There you go again....another awesome project!!! Love these blues. This will be a great group project and will make a lot of graduates happy.
I'd have a hard time stopping with strips... I'd be cutting them up again, adding and cutting and again! They do make a nice dent in your stash drawer!
The blues are just beautiful!!! I love your fabric drawers also!
These look great!
Lovely cool blocks, Beth! Blue winter sky with snow (just like the view from my window!) How are you going to set them?
OOh lovely blues, like sky and sea..
I love your idea and the blue.
Pretty pretties. What a wonderful idea to make quilts for all the high school grads. It will be something that they will all cherish forever.
Ah-h-h ... beautiful blues ... my favorite color. Think sewing strips is soothing & mesmerizing.
