Scrappy sewing

Image
The last 7 days I did a quick scrap friendly sew along with  Plains and Pine  #wildstarsal on instagram.  We made scrappy diamonds and then we were supposed to sew the background but I didn't have quite enough so had to improvise.  I have a ton more scraps but every little bit ...right? I have a bunch of this lovely vip calico fabric that worked great for a foundation for my scraps. It is very thin so the bulk barely is noticed when I quilted.  I hardly use decorative type stitches on my machines so thought I would try this multi-stitch zig zag.  I thought since this was called Wildstar that it should be out in the wild but it was very cold and windy today so not such a good idea.  39"x 38" after shrinkage stash scraps and grunge diamond straight line quilting Linking up  Life in Pieces Melva Loves Scraps
