Sometime last year I cut all my fabric scraps smaller than a fat quarter into either charm squares or strips. Varying sizes. Anything that didn't make the cut I put into a bag and gave it away. It was soooo liberating it freed up a bunch of space in my drawers and it also created a stash of fabrics I could easily put into projects. The first project that I used these scraps for was Randy's baby quilt. Randy is the son of my friend Jackie from Boston (who now resides in NY). He's a super cutie (see photo).
Anyhow for this quilt I just grabbed strips at random from the bin and sewed them into the top. Sort of jelly roll-esque it went super fast. The top was pieced with some kiddish scraps from my quilty friends and some other stash stuff. I quilted it with wavy freehanded lines. Binding and done. I always love these super scrappy quilts.
