And I have some scraps. Nothing big enough to be blocks. And I've promised myself that I won't keep things that I don't have a definite purpose for.
So..... I've got them packaged up and ready to mail out.
Now some are rectangularish, and some are longish strips (2" to 4" wide) and some are rather triangular and some have little remnants of Wonder Under on the ends.... they are rather like a box of chocolates.
So do you have a use for this rather odd assortment of rather cute Christmas scraps?
Leave me a comment and tell me what you'd use them for!
I'll pick a winner and get them in the mail this week to you!
I'd love to get a bag of scraps! Scrap quilts are really my favorite, using smallish pieces, but because of that I continually decimate my own scrap pile. I think I'd combine these with some snowflake fabric I have and make Christmas crazy-quilt stockings for my family. Thanks for sharing your goodies. It's true, one man's trash is another man's treasure.
ReplyDeleteoh! oh! OH! I am making mini-mini quilts...
ReplyDelete4-5" as tree decorations. These scraps would be PERFECT!!! I made a mini quilt yesterday and I liked it so much that I decided to make bitty ones for extra gifts. I was planning to go to the store later this week for more Christmas fabric. But, I'll wait to see if I am fortunate enough to win this giveaway. You rock!
This is very nice of you to make sure your scraps get put to good use. I'm sure you'll have many people interested. If you don't find a better use, I'd love to add them to my stash for making charity quilts for children: Linus Quilts, Camp Reach For the Sky, and I've recently been inspired by another blogger for the need to make lap quilts for seniors living in homes that may need a bit of good cheer and warmth.

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice idea Wendy...I should do this same thing more often! I'd love to be entered...I could use them in my Christmas quilt, NEXT YEAR!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance.
Oh nice scraps. I'd love to make some scrappy christmas stockings!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and I would like to make a yoyo Christmas hanging in the shape of a tree and these scraps would be perfect! thanks for having a giveaway
ReplyDeleteNice scraps! I'm making a mini stocking garland and need more fabrics so scraps would be perfect for this! Hoping to add to it each year and have it wrap around the whole tree one day! xx
ReplyDeleteGreat scraps!
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't given this away yet please count me in on this one!! Fun scraps!!!
ReplyDeleteoooh! I see a patchy tree skirt in my future if I were to win these!
ReplyDeleteHi! Just stumbled across your website and saw that you're giving away scrap pieces. I'd like to enter your giveaway. If I won, I'd use them in a quilt for the Bags of Love program at our church. The quilts are given to kids who are in foster care. I'm a newbie quilter and the church ladies are teaching me the basics. It'd be nice to donate some fabric for my next project as a thank you instead of using the church's fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love scraps! I'm making a scrappy patchworky advent calendar this would be perfect for!
ReplyDeleteI would make a scrappy quilt just for me.I love other peoples scraps.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing patchwork skirts for my girls, this would be perfect! Or, I have a nativity advent calendar on my list for next year. Awesome! thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeleteHi there
ReplyDeleteI am always looking for pieces of fun fabric - I make crazy quilt pillow cases for konker cancer and cute small quilts for the NICU ward at Evergreen hospital
Thanks for the opportunity
Cheers

ReplyDeleteI do a TON of patchwork (mostly since, as a student scraps are easier to afford) and my mom freaks out about decorating form Christmas. I'd like to make something for her so show her that I support her Christmas bonanza, even though I am away this year.
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't given them away yet... I would love them for scrappy baby doll quilts I am making for three girls in the community. (2 families, 3 girls). The church got them dolls, but each of the ladies agreed to give something else for them. Both dads lost their jobs and Christmas is going to be thin this year...
ReplyDeleteI'd love them! If you didn't already give the away that is. I want to make my aunt a christmas quilt so these would be great. Love the elf feet!
ReplyDeleteI would add them to my other Christmas scraps and make a wreath! Thank you for this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteSome picture frames and book covers and baskets for kids:)
