Scrappy Cat

Making scrap quilts is not for the faint of heart and one must be prepared to wrestle the scraps from vicious predators. Or maybe this is only a problem for those of us with a pile of strips on the floor. To see what other brave folks are making with scraps, you can visit Oh Scrap.

Here are my Dear Jane blocks for the day. On the right is C1 or Trooper Green's Badge and on the left is M1 or Dogwood Days. And while there are lots of dogwood trees in this area, we are several months away from dogwood days. I'm also wondering what will happen to the daffodils this year. Earlier in January our weather was quite warm and the daffodils sprang up with great enthusiasm only to be slapped down with some bitter cold.

Oh, poor daffodils!
That top photo looks familiar to me - if that face was a tiny gray tiger, it would look just like my little Ursula peeking out of a pile of fabric. She did love yarn and fabric so. (I miss her...)

I am happy to see I am not the only one that has big piles of scraps in my sewing room. Thanks for sharing your pretty blocks with Oh Scrap!

I have never seen a pile of scraps with such big eyes!

What a great picture! I bet it's fun hiding in all those scraps!

Emily said it - a great picture! Perhaps Molly could get over here and help me sort my scraps.

I can see what a great helper Molly is to you with scraps! She keeps them fluffed and randomized, right?

Barbara said...

What an excellent helper you have!
