Scrappy Saturday

Today is the first day of Scraphappy's Rainbow Scrap Challenge for 2011. So I sorted out all my blue scraps - enough to fill a fair sized basked.

Then, in between sewing together the top for my redesigned Tail Feathers, I ironed the lot, and now it looks like this.

So now I'm already to start sewing. I recently bought myself some Tri Recs rulers so I think I'm going to be playing with those and seeing what I come up with.

I love your basket of blue scraps. I used my companion angle and easy angle today, it felt good to use up the little bits and pieces. The tri rec stars are awfully cute. They go nicely with four patches.

Oooooo...designs from the Tri-Recs rulers are beautiful! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

I like using the Tri-Recs rulers. They sat in my box of rulers for several years before I finally put them to use. Then I wondered why I waited so long.

Lots of great blue scraps! Can't wait to see what you make and how you like your new rulers.

I really enjoy the Tri Recs rulers since I took a class with Bonnie Hunter in September. We made cathedral stars with the rulers and the units came out perfect every time...fun!

Its amazing how ironing reduces a heap into an orderly pile! I love sorting scraps ready for a new project, I'm going to visit to see what you are working on! Nosey parker, yeah, yeah, but are you surprised? Nah, didn't think so!!
