Scraps, glorious scraps!

So I treated myself to some new FQ's and some scraps from the fabulous Fabricshoppe, I know they are based in america, but there isn't many places in the uk that supply such modern and fresh fabrics at an affordable price so occasionally I do tend to splurge a little!

Does anyone else enjoy sorting out their scraps into colour ways? I adore sorting out my fabric and matching it together into different combinations. I think if my SO knew how much I enjoyed doing it he would probably have me sectioned! Hehe!

I am hopeless at using scraps, or strips that aren't 2 1\2" or the such like, so one night I got my rotary cutter out and cut strips that weren't equal!! 

I then stitched a pretty easy wonky log cabin block, which I love and am now quite addicted to using scraps and making wonky blocks!

 I think next time I will use a fussy cut piece for the centre, so it has a sort of focal point. It will eventually be a cushion, I like cushions.

My new design wall in my workroom at mums (where I run my business from) I have it half divided for work, half for sewing. I say workroom lightly because actually it is just a converted garage!

Also last summer I bought myself something I have always, always wanted. A VW campervan. She is my pride and joy, and although we didn't stay anywhere in her as she wasn't ready I did use her a fair bit for general driving. At the moment I have my v-dub off the road and Im doing up the interior and getting everything I need for camping. And obviously I need some patchwork cushions, see I told you I like cushions!

I made two wonky star blocks, using some scraps of pinks, and some plain and some special fabric that I bought for my camper! (you will see why)

When I finally get some feather cushions to go in them I will take a better picture of them in my camper, with my newly covered seats ;-)

That's all for now! Kellye xxx
