The gallon Ziploc on the left is stuff with 2" strips. The big bag on the right is full of 2.5" strips. I'm not going to use them. I don't want them any more. I want those two tubs for other things.
Does anybody out there want them for scrap quilts? If so, just leave a comment and we'll have a drawing tomorrow night, Monday 1-24-11, when I get home from work. If no one wants them, they'll be given to someone locally to put in dog beds for the shelter.
Thanks!!!
Hi Vicky,
ReplyDeleteFunny I just cleaned 2 spots in my sewing room that scraps seem to land. My husband goes to coffee every morning and in conversations with one of the workers she asked him what I do with my scraps. He came home and asked me, I told him they just collect. The worker and a group of her friends collect scraps to make prayer quilts for babies and children who are critically sick. So I gathered them and filled a garbage sack (wow, no idea there was that much) and sent him to coffee the next morning. It also gave me some inspiration to make a couple of quilts myself. Funny how people we do not even know inspire us.
Love your blog. Chris W.
Sure, I like scrap quilts for Project Linus. And maybe a cat bed for the shelter. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love other people's scraps. They add so much variety to my collection and I love to use them!!! So I am jumping up and down (not really :) saying pick me, pick me!!! :0)

I'd love your scraps. Most of my quilts are scrap quilts and I seem to use 2 in. or 2 1/2 in. squares in most everything. Besides, other peoples scraps just might have that perfect square that you've been missing.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE your scraps! I have Bonnie Hunter's book, and am just figuring out when to cut up my fabric into 2.5" scraps for the quilts.... This would give me a head start...
ReplyDeletethanks for the opportunity,

ReplyDeleteI wpould love your scraps. I don't have much money for quilting so I am always looking for scraps. I would put them to good use.
ReplyDeleteHi, I think your very generous. Thanks for the chance to win. One womens trash is anothers treasure. Scrap quilts are my favorite. Any strips are great for a log cabin quilt. Thanks again!!!;>
ReplyDeletePlease enter me into the draw. I wanted to make some scrap quilts and realized - my mother has scraps (1970s 1980s vintage) but I do not. Guess I'm too frugal with using every bit. I would like "my own scraps" even if win them from someone else. With these, I can make some lap quilts for church donation. Thanks for the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness... I would love your scraps! I know how much of a Minick & Simpson fan you are so I bet there some of their scraps in there! THanks!

ReplyDeleteI love scraps and I love to use them, pick me :-) Greetings from Slovakia :-)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveway. I have used up all my scrap strips so I'd love a new start! I just posted a quilt made with scrappy blues,
ReplyDeletePick me, I need more scraps! Who doesn't? Of course they will have to stay in the plastic bag because the scrap drawers are already so full they won't shut all the way!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway opportunity!

I am not going to ask for myself, but our mutual friend, Sheila, has made some lovely strip quilts and I wouldn't be surprised if she would want some more.
ReplyDeleteYes! I would LOVE some fabric scraps. I'm a new quilter and don't have a "stash" yet.
