| using scraps |
The background fabric I used in step 1 contains some yardage and bits and pieces from the scrap drawer. Now I realize that the background fabric for the rest of the quilt may not be as varied. I still have the yardage fabric (some in abundance) but I've gone scrounging for variety. Some of the pieces from the scrap drawer were the instruction parts of novelty panels (don't ask how old they are). I can't believe I used to toss them in the trash (silly, I know). I found a few more buried in the stash so I wacked them off and into the quilt they go. I was never quite sure what I was saving them for, but now I know.

Very creative use of panel instructions!! I love it!
Absolutely ingenious! I love it! Best wishes!
In RRCB...I used an entire book panel, including the directions to a Teacher's Pet book. I have used many pillow and vests panels the same way. Hack them up and use them for color. What could be better?!!
Brilliant!
What a great "why didn't I ever think of that" moment! You're a smart cookie! Good Job :)
