Scrapitude- Saw Tooth Stars

Scrapitude partial reveal.  Well, we know what the blocks are- they are Saw Tooth Stars. Oh, so deliciously scrappy.  Love it! Not sure how the sashing will come into play- we will find that out in February.

Until then plenty to do with putting these blocks together.

25 Saw Tooth Block squares- measuring 12.5 when completed as above.

12 of the larger set triangles.

4 of the smaller triangles.

These are because the quilt is set "on point".

Charlotte's handout how to's are on the right.

JACKPOT: Scraps!

 I just bought a new sewing machine that I am super excited about.  All I want to do is sew.  Sew. Sew.  My small den is being over run by WIP's ( I assume that means works in progress). While I was there for some of my training on my new machine I saw they had a some bins with scraps in them and some plastic bags. I could fill a plastic bag for 3.99.  It actually was a little more full than what you see above.  I had a bunch of blues that I used to make a glacier block.  You can see it peaking in the corner there.
I am not big into Halloween but I thought these were mighty cute.  I am going to make my daughters some bags for Halloween.
Here is a little more detail of what I bought.  I love the batiks.

Glacier

A new block for the Quilt Story contest.

I like looking at wonky quilts.  I would like to take a class about them or learn more about them through books.  I sat down today with some of my blue scraps and pieced together a crazy wonky square.  These things kinda take on a life of their own. I am calling this one Glacier.

Mug Rugs


You may recognize the fabric from the apron I won.  Thank you Crystal and I mean no disrespect but I have tons of aprons and I really liked the fabric.  I repurposed it.

Mug rugs are such great practice for applying binding.  I am totally gearing up to put binding on my about to be finished quilt.  This one is the one I speak of.  A pre class, learning, lots of love kinda quilt.
