Two more Light Teal Scrap Finishes

A bit more digging around in the scrap patch during the week found bits and pieces of light teal lurking in the bottom of a couple of containers.   The tinkerbell fabric was leftover from a nightie made for Miss M a while ago.    Adding them to other scraps this is the result.   While rummaging around in the scraps I uncovered quite a lot of decent sized pieces of leftover binding.    I used up some in the quilt below.  



This next one was moved from being sandwiched and pinned to quilted and bound.   Two more finishes for the PICU.   


This is the last week of teal scraps and I look forward to seeing what the colour for April is.

I was asked during the week if I would like to help sew up girls size 14 skirts for Network Heaven.  A bag of 10 pre-cut skirts was left at my front door along with elastic for the waist.   The overlocker will be put to good use this week sewing them up.    

Once these are finished it will be back to organising scraps.    

My garden has also been given much more attention than it has received in quite sometime and I can  declare it " almost weed free".   I hope to reach that goal within a few days - weather permitting of course.

Happy sewing all

You're making good use of your "social distancing" time. I can't see you getting bored any time soon. The quilts will be gratefully received and make good use of your scraps. Win Win.
