Preparing for the giveaway

I've made some progress on the spiderweb quilt (pattern available for free on Bonnie Hunter's website). All of the foundation triangles are sewn and I've removed all of the papers. Now I am sewing four triangles together to make squares. Here are nine of them.

And here's Buddy working hard selecting neutrals for the giveaway. Since he is not taking suggestions, he can pick his selection ahead of time.

This is Molly's reaction to Buddy's selection.

You may remember that this was what was left after I finished the spiderweb foundation piecing.

After I stacked the scraps a bit more neatly, I could see a small reduction in scraps. In fact, there is room for Molly to settle into this bin, although so far she has not allowed me to take a picture of her nesting in it.

Great quilt, I can definitely see one in my future, I'll add it to my list! Your scraps look tempting! Other people's scraps are way more tempting, aren't they!!

I love the blue and yellow in your spiderweb. It sets off all the other scraps. Getting ready is hard work.

Doesn't it feel good when the scraps are all tamed down to fit neatly in a tote. Then I am encouraged to use them.
