AUGUST 15, 2024
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 will be a mix of fun summer sewing ideas!
Our first one is a unique holder for your tools from DYI Trefa.

And from Patchwork with Achide, a tutorial for a hidden block:

And for all of us who have a lot of SMALL scraps and want to use them up, how about this idea from Sew Easy by Sandy.

That’s all for today and I will see you again next Thursday! Keep on sewing!
