Yesterday, I posted my quilt for the PINKtober blog hop. You can see details of it HERE.
However, I did have a few left-overs, and I’m currently determined to use the leftovers from a quilt right away. That way, they are not waiting around until I can find time to deal with them!
Sew … I had partial quarter square triangles and quarter square triangles. Not enough to do much with them, but I resorted to my “go to” for small pieces!
Sew, I put them together and made these cute bags! I had enough of the white patterned fabric to line the small bag … the large bag used Island Batik solid white fabric. There is scraps of Hobbs 80/20 in between the lining and the outside. They were quilted and sewn with Aurifil thread.

Hi Gail, what a wonderful idea to make things with your scraps as soon as you finish a project! I’m not sure that I will ever be that organised but it’s a great idea. The bags are lovely – perfect for your scraps. Thanks for hosting TGIFF (and for making it a little longer).

I need to start dealing with leftover fabric right away instead of putting back in the stash. Bags are a great idea.
