Scrap buster #61 Quilted scraps? No problem - make fake trapunto with me!

I made a quilted coat a while ago and I had quite a lot of cut outs from the project. I made a vest from some of them but still had quite a lot left, smaller pieces, and I just needed to find a way to use them up. It took a while but it finally came to me – I can make a fake trapunto! I had some plain fabric blocks in my recent design and decided to test the look and it worked well. It looks great on its own and in ad mix with other blocks. Easy to make, and such effective. And most importantly, I used all my last scraps. Happy sewing!

Still working with the same blade I have showed you in last update/review.

Super Scrap buster #60 Another Potato Chip block - Mini Chips - super mix edition

I had lots and lots of very small scraps after making few projects using kids’ fabrics. I didn’t want to make another crumb block, so instead I trimmed them all to the same size and start sewing as leaders and enders. With one size of cuts, I have made 5 different variations of the blocks and was able to use up some of my adding tape as well. This will be great design for any type of fabric and for any recipient. Mix and match with this quick block. Happy sewing!

Scrap buster #59 No waste sewing - how to use up snowball scraps - adding tape idea

I have made quite a few projects where I used 2.5-inch squares to snowball something. I have been collecting the cut off triangles to make something, but making small half square triangles feels like a lot of work and even more when you need to square it off… So instead, how about using adding tape (or interfacing or thin fabric) to put them all on, trim to nice 2.5 strips and use as borders, sashing or anywhere where you would use 2.5 trips? Sewing these was much quicker and fun, and such a satisfying effect. If you have lots of these cuts and don’t want to bin them, give a go with this idea. Happy sewing!
