[@lindalosier5989]

Boy do I nave 5" scraps and this is a great quilt to use some of them up. I'm like you, I don't care if the fabric goes together, I just love using what ever I have!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

Try putting them together in baby quilt kits, or i Spy as well, with all the other bits needed if you have them, to just grab and sew when you need one quick. Add a pattern or write out your kit idea, and what you need to add, so you don't have to check everything all over again when you find it after you may have forgotten? 4×42 is enough for a big quilt. Selvedges make great ties for bundles? Do you need cute for a bowl cosy? Hot or cold. Do you have a list of smaller gifts that can be made from small pieces, do you need a gift to self? Like a lap quilt, cushion, sunglasses case, book mark, mug rug/wine glass holder, coaster, phone case, lap top bag, pen case, journal cover, sewing kit, work cushion, with pockets for epp, embroidery or button replacement etc. Bag for bits, lined orphan block pockets? Let your mind wander? Have fun,

[@dannamcgowen3889]

Thanks Penny! I have a bunch of 'potato chips' - 2.5" x 4.5" that I cut from my scraps and this pattern will work great for these also.

[@FoD2001]

Penny, the quilt will be just magnificent, I too love scrappy. This year I tried to use a lot of my scraps an one in particular was using a lot of my 2 1/2” squares it is beautiful and remembering all the previous quilts the scraps came from was a joy.😊 Have a great week and a lot of fun sewing.

[@gretroman8235]

Great idea for scraps. Could be a leader and ender project too. I have lots of scraps from quilts I have made. Can be a memory quilt for me about quilted projects I have made for others. Easy enough to cut 5 inch or 2.5 by 5 inch scraps after a quilt is done and scraps need managing.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yes. That’s exactly what I was saying. Yay! I really need to use some scraps and this is a great way!

[@carolynmills513]

I was thinking about the leader and ender as well. Can get lots done all while working on another quilt or 2.

That is ❤️ beautiful. When I get enough scrap pieces, I'm gonna put them in a bag, without looking pick the next piece 😅.

[@judyadams9541]

What if you take a printed 5” seam and a white 5” block, right sides together and sew on 2 opposite sides and then cut in half? So you have 2 “blocks” made. Makes sense to me and quicker

[@judyadams9541]

I meant 5” squares.

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

That would be good!!!

[@ceciliaschleicher278]

However works for you 😉😊. But, you are still sewing 2 seams to make 2 blocks 😊

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

Try sewing a white to a coloured square down both sides before you cut squares in half. No more lining up fabric pairs to cut first, you can set seams before cutting, but you don't have to. Separate the cut squares into 2 piles aa you cut them then mess up one pile or split and re-stack once. Sew together one from each pile, just make sure they are still different fabrics. Lay aside a few 2 piece units for each row end. Repeat the unmatching with larger sections... cut a few squares in half and add a coloured patch to the ends of your rows. To make sure all ends are different, sew an "odd" coloured strip, to those 2-patch units you laid aside, to make a few 3-patch units. You can turn them around so the first one goes on the end instead, where you have 2 of each cut piece? Or just sew to a white piece and put it somwhere in the row, Or scatter the placement to the centre of a row, or the right end of a smaller strip unit, turning the other half to end it with a colour? Check you have the right numbers, Press seams, then, Add a sashing strip to each row and lay out only when or if you want to. There are no official quilt police, just amateurs, however experiencd they are, so only do things this way if it works for you. After all just keep having fun.

[@melanietaylor0401]

Great tips!! I knew there must be a faster way if you wanted. I've recently been in hosp for a hip replacement & Strep. Today has been a good day, so I'm back in my room. Thanks again!! 😊

[@deborahharris8986]

What a good way to use up some scraps. I have a large piece of Navy Blue that needs using. I think come January I might try my hand at this. Also, I wonder what it would look like if I alternate rows. Start one row with the plain colour, then the next row with the print. So on (sew on ;) ) and so forth. Thanks for this idea Penny. 😊😊😊👌👌👌🪡🧵🪡🧵

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Actually, I debated doing that! If you alternate the rows send me a picture! Either way, submit a picture and I’ll include it in a video so others can see it too! Have fun with it.

[@maureentaphouse5206]

I had the same thought too as I've noticed on a lot of designs that staggering the rows gives a less regimented look which I prefer personally.

[@glendaporter4362]

I love this!

[@joanbarker6581]

Love it!!!

[@lauriechaney]

great way to use up scraps but if using charms can i suggest where you take a white charm and a print charm sew down each side and cut in middle to make a two patch then assemble the blocks in a row. Just a thought

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yes, another way of doing it. Thats what I love about quilting. So many ways to do things. 😁

[@lindajames4122]

I love it. I have so much fabric and this is a great way to use some of it up. Thankyou.

[@proud2bktsmama]

I think I just found my next scrap project. Thank you for taking the time to make videos to share . . . I learn a lot from watching and get such good ideas. You are much appreciated. Can you tell me about how many five inch squares you used?

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

I'm so glad you like it! I’ve got 16 in each row so 8 five inch squares per row of the colored scraps. I’ve got 11 rows so far. I think I’ll probably end up with around 18 rows. Not sure yet. That would be 144. That may be too big. I’ll decide as I go. 😁

[@nanniibee]

Love this idea and the look of the quilt top. What size bed will it cover?

If you’re thinking about making a queen size quilt, how many color strips across and down, would you need, not including the white strips? And do you know when you are going to finish this video project?

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

I finished the quilt top. If I wanted a certain size I would just make a strip and lay it across the bed to determine the size. 😁

[@CINDYFINKEN]

@ can i get the link to where you finished the quilt top please. I only have the first half and need the one where you said you would come back and finish the bottom.

Another thought..what if you just did white /print on one row then print/white next row? Would eliminate lining up the sashing .

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

That’s another way and it would look good too. Someone else said that too. I’d thought of that but this is the why I’d seen one done so went with this this time. You should try it, either way. 😁😁

A little spritz of water or spray startch would make those unruly seams lay flat. Really like your pattern.😊

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

Do you have a lot of fat quarters that don't go with anything, or enough that you can pick 42 and make 'em work together? Make your own pre-cuts, all at once or a few at a time. Cut a 10 inch strip and a 5", from each bit after removing the selvedge to use as ties? Leave aside at that or cut 2× layer cake squares, from 10" and 4× charm from 5". Or 5"×10", or half jelly roll strips. Whatever works with how you want to go next. You can always cut down, not up in size. Do you want a different size, than 10", for 3", 4" squares etc! Go for it. You can make a kit with 2x 10" for a larger quilt, keep the 5" together or apart for baby quilts, I spy? make your own kits? Add a pattern, write a note to self and put in how much is in there and the plan, have you got background, borders binding and backing in there too? Or just have smaller pieces ready to sew gifts or sample blocks from. Cut up the scraps or put them in the kit for later inspiration, maybe a piano key border.. Can you square them up or rectangle evenly, for "ugly" backings, or cut binding strips from fq's, smaller borders, scrappy or not. Metrage will often give you an extra strip over yardage. 1 metre is a tad longer than 1 yard. Often 18"×22""?... not 16×21? 2 1/2" Strips can be cut down for flying geese, squares, potato chips, hst's, as you need them later. Do you have a triangle ruler that leaves off a dog ear, you can get 2 1/2" hst's from 2 1/2" strips. Have fun!

[@sewcharmingquiltshop]

Yes!!!!! I also thought of I spy using this pattern but I have another one I going to do using I spy so I decided against it on this one. 😁
