pink

Today I sorted my quilt fabric scraps. And I made this:

Here's the chunk I had left over, and the much smaller pink scrap pile:
 
And yes, I'm kind of copying Amanda Jean.
What should I do with the leftover rectangle?

Cut it into some hearts and raw edge applique it on some hand towels for valentine's day home decor?

I like what you've one with the scraps. Use it in the backing of your little quilt.

Use it on the backing of the quilt.

Great idea! How about a cushion or bag with the leftover?

I like Jennifer's idea I think that would be very cute. I also thought about using it on the backing, but there is a nice size piece there and you could cover a notebook and make it into a sewing journal.

What about a doll quilt? A mini one could be given to a little girl you know, or as a donation to the local shelter...

Very cute! So many great ideas for that leftover bit - you'll end up having to make more leftover piece! ;-)

have you ever seen a tossed 9 patch--saw it done on quilt in a day. you make nine patch blocks, then cut them through the middle into four pieces--any size 9 patch works. then sew back together all mixed up--http://www.carriagequiltshoppe.com/Tossed9Patch.JPGshe had a light color in the middle.

What are you doing with the big square? You could sew them together and make a cute placemat! or make more blocks for an awesome quilt!

Send it to me! Hee hee! Just kidding. I think it would be adorable on the back of the quilt. I LOVE when the back is just as interesting as the front of a quilt!
