I've been saving the scraps from everything I make and have finally gotten around to sorting and quilting them up. I think I'm going to make a dress but I might have to make bellbottoms and a bomber jacket. I'm undecided. I have some time to think on it as I have a heap of scraps to sew

I’m a fellow quilter and scrap hoarder. ✊🏻

I do not have the space to reasonably hoard as much as I do 😂 I'm having to quilt it all out of necessity so I can make fun new things again. There are worse problems to have i suppose 😅

Blankets are always a nice option. Cute gifts to give away too. Always one of a kind.

Oh these scraps are so pretty! I'm always jealous of pics like this because every single thing in my scrap pile somehow clashes with everything else, which should be physically impossible but there you go.

Bell-bottoms would be amazing, that gets my vote.

They are all pretty cohesive since they come from my pieces i made for my wardrobe and my daughters. I'm about halfway through now. I think I'll make the bellbottoms but with a detachable bib to make them overalls? And a matching jacket. That way I can make a skirt later on when i have more scraps that can be turned into a pinafore. I've got to make this worth my time haha
