Ahhhhh...the possibilities...

 
I've been indulging in a little scrappy sewing this week (amidst tackling larger projects like basting 2 quilts :o).  And it feels so good to have a little playtime with small bits of pretty fabric that I have squirrelled away.  Joyful even, to randomly stitch them together and see what they will become.
 
 
I've cleared space in a scrap bin while giving my self the chance to wander creatively - no firm plan in mind (which is a relaxing way to offset  those projects that demand more of me).  This was strictly for the pleasure of it and now I get to decide whether this new piece shall become integrated into something larger... or not.
 
 
I love  when I take the time to go with where the scraps lead me.... it usually takes me somewhere inspiring and gives me a much needed breather while still being creatively fulfilling. Oh, how I love the possibilities scraps provide! ;o)

How fun to keep putting your scraps to a great use through a new one of a kind piece of fabric!

looking very pretty! I had the thought of sewing my scraps into random patchwork, but then I got scared, what if I need them? (I'm not sure what I think I might need an ENTIRE laundrey basket full of scraps for...)
