Another Scrappy FLimsy

Here's another all scrap quilt.  The blue is from a quilt I made for a wedding present.  The nine patch is 2 1/2 inch squares.  A lot of the scraps are from friends who don't work with small pieces. 

I love this type of mindless sewing.  This makes nine flimsies on a hanger to iron and sandwhich.  This is a small quilt for a newborn.  I always make large baby quilts, but my daughter mentioned when the baby was newborn, she would have used a smaller quilt more oftern.  So I am making a few smaller ones.  I love making them, as they are a lot faster.

These nine patches are from when I was doing a block a day,  I do love whipping out a tip with all the pieces sitting in a box.

This quilt is already sandwhiched.  I will try to quilt it tomorrow on my day off.

Scrappy Baby Boy quilt

I am trying to finish several baby quilts to have on hand when there is a cute baby to give one to.  Before I went back to work I always had 5 or 6 baby quilts ready at all times.  I would like to build up another stash.  For this one, I did something I always wanted to, I used pieces to make a a main block.  This one is really a free quilt.  All the blocks are leftover from other quilts.

These nine patches were made when I was doing one block a day.  I need to get back to sewing at least one block a day, I really want to spend more time sewing.

Don't forget the giveaway. and....... new give away

I love scraps. I went to our UFO quilting bee today. Judy was cutting borders for a quilt she was finishing up. She gave me her scraps so I was able to cut quite a stack of 2 1/2 inch squares. These are one of my favorite sizes to make baby quilts. I make lots of baby quilts for charity, and I love to give baby quilts away as fast as I make them.

New give away......Aren't these the cutest coasters. I gave the paper with the directions on it to a friend so she could visit the site, I will have to post the name of the wonderful lady who gave us this tutorial later.
