Is your stash starting to expand and invading other areas than your sewing studio? Are your muffin bins topped and about to explode at any minute? Do you feel overwhelmed? Not sure how to use it or what to do with it, and almost to the point of giving it away? I feel that way too, at times!  Not to worry! I believe I have a cure for this common ailment. Let’s bust our scraps, especially those little pieces that seem to multiply when your back is turned.

Each Thursday I will find some patterns that will deal with the little pieces and even some of the larger and odd pieces that we all tend to accumulate.

Today, we have a mix of different ideas.  We are starting with a fun layer cake pattern from Missouri Star Quilts.  So, get your rotary cutter, a layer cake and a jelly roll and prepare for some fun!

From Karen Brown, we have a video on Precut Fabrics, 10 Things You Need to Know Before You Buy.  Very interesting video.
