Wow, I haven't posted in over a month. I've been overwhelmed by scraps so I was looking for a way to use them. I found an idea on the Sew Mama Sew Forum from Quilting is My Passion. She calls them crumb chaos blocks. They are so much fun. I made a stack of them and made three rugs from them. I have only two pictured here, front and back. The one with the white backing is made from a rug my grandmother made. The front was worn and had holes, but the back wasn't too bad. There is one more, but I think I'll cut that one up and patch up the back instead of using the two layers like I did the last one. It was a bit too thick sewing through all four layers.
I still have tons more scraps and will be searching for other things to make with them. Does anyone have any ideas? I'd love to hear them.

Why not try some hexagon quilting since you have so many scraps. May be you can apply the quilting to make some tote bags...
Hmmm, that's an idea. Thanks, I will have to check out your blog to see how to do it.
