Today I'm making a beginner-friendly quilt using only leftover scraps. This sewing project is also perfect to recycle old fabric, clothes, etc. and transform them into something completely new!
You will never throw away your bits of scrap fabric again after watching this video.

Let's get that fabric stash and put it to (very) good use! What do you do to put your leftover fabrics to work? Enjoy!
Yeah, anytime you want to re-home your scraps, I’m a happy recipient! 😊 Your videos are always so joyful. TY.
Heheh thank you 😊
A quilt with all my scraps would cover my block.
hehehe where do you keep all those scraps??
Have just found you on RUclips, and thank you for showing me an easy quilt to re-kindle my quilting bug. It has been dormant for over 10 years, and now regret giving all my stash to the local op shop! Never mind, your videos will get me sewing again, have a lovely day.
Welcome! I'm so happy to hear that!! Happy sewing! 🧵
I love this sort of quilts. Easy and scraps are gone.
Exactly 😂
I love your enthusiasm Sandy ❤. I love sorting through my scraps. It inspires me to make something with them. I love scrappy quilts.
I lack the patience unfortunately 😕
I took my 2 1/2” strips, sewed them end to end and made a jelly roll quilt. I had several of the same fabric, just mixed them up and it was interesting to see the fabrics pool-much like variegated yarns do. Mine was more scrappy, less planned.
Love it! 😍
Hi Sandy! Your enthusiasm encourages us to JOYFULLY work to save the planet. We are so lucky to be creative and have the abilities to make changes in the world. Thank you for always making me smile. Hugs from Canada (today there is lots of smoke from forest fires so please pray for those affected) xx
Thank you so much! Oh gosh, I hope everyone is okay! Those poor animals... We get so many fires here in the Summer too, it's heartbreaking even when it doesn't affect people...
@@seweasybysandy Each forest fire breaks all of us a little bit more each year. Thank you for your kind words.
I watched other RUclips videos on potato chip quilts and it is so much fun. I am on my third quilt and using up lots of scraps. I use a large square in the middle and layer on the potato chips in compatible colours. Great lap size.
I've heard of them, I'll have to give it a try!
LOVE those potato chip quilts...am starting my first one as well...
Our guild makes 25x25” quilts for a local hospital nursery. They also take 25x30”. They use them in the bassinets or to cover the incubators for NICU babies. Or give it to a little girl for a doll bed. Thanks for sharing! 💚
That's wonderful 😊
It's a lovely quillt. Love the colours.
And Sandy ,you're so right. My son and I just buy second hand clothes.👍. And I use them also for the quilts.safes a lot too. LG
That's awesome, I love that! 😻
I have scraps of strips and triangle and diamond. I've sewed pot holders, pin cushions, and coasters and gave some away as gifts.
Perfect 😃👌
Great quilt for a baby girl. I have to make one. Thanks 😊
Thank you, have a Great day! 😊
Beautiful, as always ❤
Thank you 🥰
I use leftovers from quilt tops in a pieced backing. Really great way to keep scraps under control
Love that 🤩
You have such a lovely personality and your zest for doing quilt projects is really nice! Always a treat to see such positivity.!
Thank you 🥰
I have been on the quit smoking adventure now for close to 2 months. When I started I decided that I had to do something with all my scraps. And I had to keep myself busy lol. I took my scraps cut them into 5 x 2 in pieces and started sewing and I didn't stop. My quilt top is now 192 inches long and 82 inches wide lol. Unfortunately I had to start new projects and have more scraps. My daughter and I will be taking the "quit quilt" as we call it outside to lay out and cut into 2 quilts lol
That is so awesome! Congratulations 🎉🎉 yes, quilts will keep you busy and entertained for a very long time. The quit quilt, that's perfect! 😁
Anyone thinking about getting a thermal printer just keep in mind it is not useful for anything you want to keep long term.. think about store receipts they fade. So while it may seem convenient it's not
Do you know approximately how long it takes for them to fade? I was really needing one of these 😢
Yeah, thermal printing fades in like a year or so, but I don't think these are meant for long term stuff anyway...
Omg, this is the cutest!!!
Thank you 😊
That would look beautiful in a pram. So bright and cheery. I love it.
Agreed! 😃
Ok, this is awesome. I just stumbled upon your channel. You popped up in my suggested videos.
Hi! Welcome, I'm so glad you've found us 😁
Gorgeous baby dog! Love dogs! I make every Saturday and Sunday scrap days. The only thing I sew is leftovers 😅!
Thank you 😊 I love that, scrap days! ❤️
I sort my scraps while watching TV with my husband in the evenings. 🤗 Deb x
The quilt is kind of like a jelly roll race quilt, except you cut the rows rather than halving and halving and halving, if you know what I mean?! Beautiful! Xx
Thank you 😊
Suggestion for the ultimate scrappy quilt ... make a play pad for baby's tummy time. Beauty is not the goal. Visual and tactile interest is. So go for a maximum of contrast in shapes, colors and pattern. Play with embroidery, add appliques, whatever ... just so long as it is 100% safe to put through a washer and dryer (repeatedly) and also take care that all materials are safe to chew and that none of the fun extras can come off. E.g., appliques yes, buttons no.
I have ten grandkids and have made a number of these. Trust me. They can be ugly as sin, but if they're fun to look at and touch, the babies will love them long after they need them. One of mine is so beloved, it got hung up in the "baby's" bedroom when he was in high school. By his request!
A few tips ... tummy time play pads need washing frequently to remove spit up, drool, etc. etc. I find batting just doesn't hold up, so I prefer to use one or two old bed sheets instead. The other issue I saw when my kids were little is that when they begin to try and crawl, tummy time blankets bunch up and hinder their progress. So I go for more stiffness in the final project than I would like for a blankie.
Also, I use flannel for the backing. It doesn't help much on bare floor, but it is brilliant on carpeting. The flannel and the carpet kind of hold on to each other, giving baby more freedom to move around. If you know it'll be used on bare floor, consider using a new, cotton canvas drop cloth. Just find a balance between big enough and stiff enough to work well and too big and too stiff to fit in the washer/dryer!
Love that! 10! 😲
It definitely takes time to sew scraps!
Love this idea!
Hi my name is Chrisy i like the way you make the simplest easy quilts they are so pretty. I like to sew as well i have made little tote bags and small projects. You do so many great jobs in all things you have made. I will have to look and see what i can make out of my scrap of fabric. Have a great day.
Hi Chrisy! Thank you 😊
I sort during evening TV time.
hehehe. Where do you keep all those scraps??
Thank you. That is just a super quilt
Thank you, so easy and fun too!
Scrap Solutions: it is all about pre-organizing bins first, prior to sewing! Have bins at the ready!!! Label, then stack them up! After a quilt is created, put scraps into bins for scraps that are from the same "lines" of fabric...then - keep scraps in themes (animals, holiday, Christmas, kids, asian, batiks, food themed, dots, stars, civil war, etc.)...then have ColorWay bins...one for blue, green, brown, pink, white, black, etc...
Right after creating a quilt...don't precut scraps into specified shapes and lengths... just put the scrap into its bin with the rest of its family. Do not keep a massive empty bin, and keep adding to it, until it overflows...too overwhelming when the time comes to deal with it... one needs to Deal With It, right from the Get Go! As you Go! But that can only happen if you have a plan in place!
Thank you 😊 I've been thinking about that, the best way to organise my scraps.
I have a question for you, Are you Dutch or do you have Dutch ancestors? I hear some Dutch dialect in your voice.
No, I'm Portuguese
