Is your stash starting to expand and invading other areas than your sewing studio? Then it is time to ask a few questions: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.
Each Thursday I will find some ideas and patterns to use up some of the scraps and even some helpful hints to declutter, and control our stash.
Remember those big beautiful pieces of yardage that we JUST had to have, and how we really wanted them so we could finish a project? And the fabric was such a good price? Then, after we cut what we needed, sewed it together, here are these leftover, lonely pieces in bins waiting and hoping they will be used… someday. Well, their turn has come with these fun ideas!
Our first one is from Donna Jordan and she has a Leftovers For Quilt (Dinner) Scrap Happy Table Runner.
