Playing with Scraps

 Another day, another squirrel. 

The thing is, people give me little triangles...

 I was starting to trim some little squares this morning when I had this idea.  The squares, when trimmed, are about 2 inches. They would only finish at about 1.5 when sewn into something.

 "Why," I thought, "am I trimming these when I am just going to add them to something to make them bigger?  Why don't I just make them bigger now, before trimming!"

Sew that is what I did! They ended up at 3" unfinished.

Once I had two trimmed I was so in love with them that I had to search out some more "neutrals" a la Bonnie Hunter and make up some more sets to sew.


If I only knew what I had planned for them I would be a happy camper.  
But really, the Journey is the fun part, the destination is not.
