Brick by brick

I am supposed to be sorting out my scraps and getting some type of order to them but as usual getting sidetracked can happen very easily when doing such a boring task.     While going through the white and pink scrap containers temptation got in the way and I soon found myself measuring and cutting 2 1/2" white squares and 2 1/2" x 6 1/2"  pink strips which are coming together like this.


I have divided the pinks into light, medium and dark groups and mixing them up in each row.   My "building" when completed will end up by 24" x 30"  if my calculations are correct.

Thanks Cheryll for being such a fun hostess and organising FNwF .   You can pop on over here to see more projects that were worked on or completed last night.

Back soon and in the meantime

Happy sewing all

    Its very hard to try and tidy and sort without becoming sidetracked... I like where the pinks are taking you...

    It is always interesting to see what tidying inspires us to do. Your bricks look great.

    At least you got sidetracked doing something worthwhile! The pink bricks are going to look good. I wonder what will happen next time you go scrap sorting?!

    That was a happy accident resulting in some pretty patchwork. But you have convinced me that I should NOT try tidying up. Who knows what will I find and then who knows what will happen. I must concentrate on the task at hand. Now what was I doing?
