Using Two Inch Scraps


 Orange is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month. This month I'm also making blocks in last months color which was aqua.  This week I dug into my two inch scrap bin to make some blocks. 

Wedding Ring blocks in orange that finish at 7.5 inches. 

 Wedding Ring blocks in aqua. 

Sixteen Patch blocks. 


Wonky Stars that will finish at 4.5 inches. I'm using waste triangles for the star points.  I've been making these off and on for a few years and only have a small pile of them. 

I have a big bin of 3 inch nine patches so have been making some 3 inch kitties to combine with them.  I cut all the kitty pieces from 2 inch scraps.

No scrap left behind! I love that you’re so ambitious with all the tiny bits. And you know I love the cats, wedding rings and scrappy stars.

I really like those Wedding Ring blocks! I bet they make an interesting secondary pattern when sewn together.

I just can't believe you work with all of those tiny pieces! You do so well with them all. Such inspiration, but I don't see myself making a bunch of squares with such small pieces! LOL

What lovely RSC blocks! I really like your wedding ring blocks. A friend from my church is getting married and I have been contemplating what to make. Will probably go modern with Tri-Love Triangles, but if I had more time I would definitely make the wedding ring blocks. Are you planning to join them neck and neck or separate the blocks with a thin neutral sashing? Sandy at sewhigh.blogspot.com

Really pretty blocks - especially the Wedding Ring blocks - so pretty. I've heard about the rainbow scrap challenges but never done one. You've got a lot of pretty projects going.
