    High everyone. Pulling this video together took me a bit longer than I thought it would. It was fun playing with Mt Scrapmore again. I hope you enjoy making them as much as I did. If anyone is wondering where I am walking...it's the Bruce Trail at the Fruitland trail.

      I will take your one inch strips. I like those very thin strips in between wider ones, it just adds something to a strippy block.

      Hello, love your videos and really loved the forest background. In fact, I found this one so much easier to watch. Took me a few minutes to realise why, because there weren't really bright lights flashing up in your glasses in this one! The other ones trigger me because the bright video lighting in your sewing studio acts like a strobe light and gives me a bit of a headache. Perhaps you could use a diffuser? Thanks for listening!

    I love the fact that you talk slowly enough for me to absorb what you're explaining. I can't tell you how many quilting videos I've tried watching in which the presenter is talking so fast that I can't keep up with (or learn) what that person is explaining. And I always thought I talked fast!! Bless you for what you do for those of us who are trying to learn the art of quilting!!

    I'm in Victoria, BC and just joined the Victoria Quilt Guild. I have been sewing for a long time but I'm just getting into quilting. I love all the blocks you've chosen for the scrap busting. VQG had their annual Christmas sale at the beginning of November and I saw a couple of quilts there that I just fell in love with!!! Both were scrappy. One was just scrappy blue squares about 2 inches in size and you had to really look to see the ring of slightly lighter blues. It was absolutely lovely!! The other one was the braid you showed. It was in 1 inch finished strips and each joined braid was about 3 or 4 inches wide and it was just gorgeous!! I am going to give the braid a try as a table runner for Christmas. I have lots of Christmas scraps from making aprons and ornaments. Thanks for the inspiration!!

    I was not taught how to make quilts, I only knew about the fancy one's with all the patterned sewing once they were put together. They were beautiful quilts, just too much work for me. My first quilt was made using all the jeans my kids and I grew out of and whatever neighbors gave me and created what I called 'drag around quilts'. Was tired of my kids taking my blankets and quilts outside to make their forts, especially the blankets that were fuzzy and everything stuck to them and were a pain to get clean. I used blocks of denim from the old clothes, the fuzzy blankets in place of batting and a heavy weight sheet for the other side of the quilt. There were made to be slightly larger then the top of a twin bed and I made a pillow to go with them. They were easy to roll up and take with you, could be used for travel, sleep overs and the every popular backyard forts, quite literally designed to be dragged anywhere. The kids loved them because it was denim and the sheeting meant nothing stuck to them and clean up was a breeze. Was also a great way to hide the ugly looking fuzzy blankets. They were so popular family and friends were asking for them.

The other quilts are in different places with family and friends around the country since that was over 20 yrs ago and most of us have moved. In a bizarre turn, my daughters dog kept chewing on hers so will be making one for her as well, just not sure yet I can get both done in time for Christmas.

    My name is Laura and I have a scrap problem...I love them and can't bear to throw away even the smallest piece. I keep 3/4" or more. I make lots of scrap quilts and love using little pieces. My problem now is that other people now know that I use all the little pieces and several people have started giving me their scraps. At first this was a wonderful gift. I love pulling out each little piece, ironing it, sorting it, and packing it away in my elaborate system. As time has gone on, I am realizing that I am not getting several other quilters'scraps plus my own and I am spending more time processing scraps than I am actually sewing! I realize this is a good problem to have, but I need more hours in the day! No matter how many I use, the pile keeps growing! Thanks for all the fun ideas for using them!

      This happened to me too! I love scraps!! And I love small projects!! At one point I had 6 huge bins crammed full!!! I finally had to say, " I am so grateful for the offer, but I just cant take any more until I empty at least one bin! If someone else wants them please pass them on. Or I can let you know when I have room for more". Thankfully no ones feeling were hurt. Every so often now, I get, " my scraps are piling up again, do you have room for them or should I call preschools and see if they want them?".

    I made a massive dent into my my scrapmore I cut my scraps into 1.5 inch strips and joined together. However within that strip were other strips no longer than 2 to 3 inches. I made 10 inch blocks and rotated every second block. Quilt was 9 x 9 blocks. As i like bright colours it is a bright quilt. It was designed to be able to be put in the back of our SUV for impomtu picnic etc or when we are at soccer. The whole family loves it.
