    I love scrap quilts, especially when the scraps are from prior projects. Sewing is a nice walk down memory lane, at least when I remember the projects previously made. Plus, I don’t feel any pressure to sew perfect. Good enough is good enough. And the end results are always great!!! Thanks for sharing a scrappy quilt passion.

    I absolutely love this series! Not only is it scrappy quilting which is my favorite, but the patterns are simple and relatively quick and easy sewing! I will be sad if the strip buckets ever become empty. 😂

    I am loving your strip series. I love seeing someone working with their own scrap pile and not just precut sets of strips or squares that already match. I have lots of scraps to use up before I allow myself to buy any more fabric. I also like that you are working with pins; I was starting to feel like I was the only person who still sewed with pins rather than clips.

    I wouldn't press seam allowance to one side on a two-strip set, because when I have six, I noticed that you had to re-press some of them the other way. So set the seam by pressing the two, but don't press to one side till you have all six. Saves time.

    Hi just found your series, and thought of a project from your box of blocks….. how about a 12 patch with a block for each month, you could use your Halloween fabric scraps and Christmas scraps for oct and December respectively. Red white and blue for 4th July, autumnal colours for thanksgiving, military colours for Veterans Day, winter colours for January, florals for spring and summer…just a few ideas as being based in the uk don’t know all the special days in your calendar. Depending on the block size this could be a lap quilt or something for a single bed.

    I took up pieceing and quilting after 40 years about 3 or 4 years ago. The internet and creators like you have been truly inspiring; but, one thing I figured out is that I really didn't want to have buckets and buckets of "spare parts!" So, I have been pretty careful about patterns that use up as much of the fabric as possible. Evenso, I still have lots of stuff left over, so am looking forward to implementing your great ideas for using it all up! Thanks for great content!
