BUST THE BITS AND PIECES PARTY 2024

MARCH 14, 2024 HAPPY PI DAY!
This is a special post for me as it also happens to be my birthday! Oh, and Happy Birthday to all the other March babies!

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 are going to look at PI shaped quilts, especially Dresden Blades, as they are usually round.

Our first one is from Berry Birdy with a fun, small version of Dresden, called Micro Mini Dresden Sewing.  I can see that as a hand project for when traveling:

That is it for today and I will be back next Thursday!
