Here's a little something I made up with my Dresden plate scraps. The whole thing is only about 17 by 22 inches, and those center strips are just a half inch wide. Next time the scraps are going into the trash! LOL
No, no, no...don't throw out those scraps! I'm even willing to bet that you have enough scraps left from this quilt that you could make a quilt for the AAQI!
It looks very nice! I can't say I'd want to do many pieces with scraps that size, but once in awhile, it's fun to make such good use of what would otherwise be trashed!
This is so cute! What a great way to use up those left over's. And I must agree with other here, don't throw those scraps away. There will always be a use for them. Nola
Yep--you and me are on the same wave length here--I was digging though my waste basket yesterday for the tiny wedge pieces and those long thin pieces from my plates and I am sewing them together--why???? I have no idea--just crazy I guess!!!! and now I am encouraged to keep going with it==look at how cute yours came out!!!!! Hugs, Di
LOL! I can see what you mean, but....Terry, the result is just gorgeous!!!!! You just have to save them for a day you feel like playing with scraps LOL!!!!
But look you now have a wonderful Spring runner, or beginnings of a bag or even a gift for someone!!! Me... well my fingers would scream at trying to pin or sew those small pieces!!!
Yep...I've tried throwing those little scraps away...but they didn't stay in the waste basket! I just couldn't do it, puplled them back out and put them in the scrap box, just in case. LOL And you do have a very pretty little mat of some sort for something :)

Wonderful. Love the fact you managed to use the wedge shaped pieces
Oh no. Don't do that! Look how cute this little quilt is. Could even be a placemat! Ca n't wait to see how you quilt it.
Waste not, want not. I think it's adorable!!
I agree with Kathie! Looks great and you didn't have to buy more fabric...although it's always fun to visit the quilt shop!
Hugs, Carolyn :-0
You're not nuts...you're just creative...though the line between between those two is quite a fine line :o)

Oh, but look how pretty that is!!!!! Glad you didn't discard the scraps. There should be some sort of contest for using the smallest scraps!
Those are pretty tiny scraps and they worked well into the little You got two projects out of two charm packs-----pretty thrifty.
Oh, no, don't ever throw them away. This made a darling little quilt! Love those fabrics.
I think it is very cute...I never throw out my scraps...you never know when you'll need something!!
It is VERY cute! I would have thrown the scraps away. I like that you made them into something useful. Would make a cute doll quilt.

Don't toss those scraps - look at that adorable little quilt. I think you had fun! :-)
You are (nuts), but you are in very good company!! Looks great!
I'm thinking it's a good thing these didn't go in to the trash..it's so sweet!
Very cute. It is nice you tried to use all your scraps but you could have just given them to Emily.
Oh but it is so darn cute! Too cute to throw away the scraps next time. :-) Have a happy evening!
This is so cute! What a great way to use up those left over's. And I must agree with other here, don't throw those scraps away. There will always be a use for them. Nola
Well that's a beauty and a great way to use up your scraps!
P.S. I don't keep all of my scraps all the time either :P

What a wonderful way to use up those tiny scraps----it's just as cute as can be!
I still have some of that fabric line. I think the little quilt you made from scraps is cute, and I love the Dresdens, too.
Nuts but fantastic!
But it is sooooo adorable!!! SURELY you will save those scraps, girl! :)
Ohh if you can create something as gorgeous as that with your scraps, I wouldn't be throwing them out! Wonderful!!!
You might be nuts...LOL...but gee that is nice..
That turned out so cute! I love it. Never say 'scraps' in the same sentence as 'trash'.
I LUV the colors of your scrap quilt...so pretty. The white stops/borders set the scraps off so nicely.

Now that would be a shame, look at what you have created with those scraps, it is great!

And you do have a very pretty little mat of some sort for something :)
