More scraps and a plan

I sorted out the red scraps from the walmart bag full of scraps.

And the pink scraps

And made a plan for my strings.

How much fabric scraps can you stuff in a Walmart bag?

I had a very stuffed Walmart bag full of scraps in my room, so I decided to dump it out and get it sorted by color.

I got the orange cut into different sizes and sorted into by Orange box.

And the purple too!

Working on the red now. Not sure if I'll do much more after the red, we will have to see. I'm going to need to buy a new rotary blade soon.

Orange Scraps

I cut my orange scraps up.

All organized in Orange bin.

Red Scraps

Finishing up a project that I hope to share soon. Decided I needed to clear some space. Started cutting my red Scraps to sort into my red box.

In the bin all sorted.

I Spy

I went to put some fabric in my I Spy box, and noticed it was a mess. So I spent a some time cutting up fabric scraps into usable sizes:

All put back in box. (Wish I would have taken a before picture.)

Yellow

We have been really busy now that school is out. Visited a couple state parks. Brought the kids out to visit relatives, went to a zoo, driver's ed, doctor appointments... Lots going on.

I did manage to get my yellow scraps sorted out.

I didn't have very many pieces to make 6.5" blocks (6" finished). I only managed to get 5!

Project Life Inserts

I've been busy organizing my craft room. I had one of my stamps fall behind my desk. So I had to empty off my desk and the dresser that holds paper to move them. All I found behind was my stamp and one card I had made. (I thought there would be a bunch of stuff behind!)

Yesterday, as part of my organizing I decided to get memorabilia put into my albums. I took out my sewing machine, put a needle that I have put aside for paper, and altered some PL albums.

I did lots all for my 2015-2017 PL albums. So with this I have officially started my 2017 PL album. Just need to get pictures added!

I spy..

Over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, the theme this month is all mixed up.

I decided to go through my I spy fabrics and get them cut and organized into usable sizes.

Here's my bucket after cutting and organizing into different sizes. Plus I added some to what was originally in the basket.

And after pulling out a drawer of fabric I found even more that I could add to this, but there is no room. Good thing I have plans for a couple I spy quilts. (Need to finish a couple projects before I start them though.)

Ribbon

I got my ribbon and trims all sorted by color!

This should help me when I need a certain color for a project, whether it be for scrapbooking or sewing.

Getting my fabric scraps organized!!

I completed 2 boxes from the book Sunday Morning Quilts.

A pink one..

And an I spy one.(For novelty fabrics)

My colored boxes. They make me so happy!!

I still need an orange one, a black, white, brown, and maybe gray... I just need more fabrics in those colors.

After I complete my cat quilt, I plan on cutting up these scraps into the following sizes: 2", 2.5", 3.5" and 5".

I'm thinking this would be a fun quilt to use up all my colored scraps from the cat quilt on.

My crafting room is a....

DISASTER!

I plan on straightening this mess up. Any tips?
