Recording my scrappy sewing. That's scrappy, not crappy!
A little scrappy sewing has been done in the last few weeks.
My SIL asked if I could make a cover for her bike basket as, apparently, items kept in it have a habit of bouncing out when she rides over speed humps and the like. So I found a scrap of red gingham in the stash (not sure where it came from) and made a quick and easy cover, with elastic to keep it tight. I haven't yet heard if it has stopped her water bottle from bouncing out of the basket but at least it looks cute!
And I've completed a couple of scrappy blocks - just to keep my sewing hand in. These blocks are what I do when I need to sew but my mind is on other things. I just about have enough to make a quilt this year. I enjoy making these scrappy trip around the world blocks.
Each month, we are reminded by Kate or Gun to post about our use of scraps in the last few weeks. There's no obligation to post but it is a great way of reminding ourselves of what we've achieved, and of showcasing the various uses our scraps can be put to.
The bloggers below are all ScrapHappy Day participants, maybe not every month, but their blogs are worth looking at. If you want to join in too, contact Kate below and have some fun with scraps. Kate sends a reminder email each month, a few days before the 15th, so you can post about your work with scraps.
