2010 Sew Scraps Along ...with me?

I've been sewing a bit these days. I've started 3 new scrappy projects; all using my fabric scraps. Yesterday I shared one of my scrappy projects with you. It's my 2009 Scrappy Quilt.

And I teased you about my 2010 Scrappy Quilt. Plus there are 2 other projects I haven't shared yet and I have some things to share in regards to my Grandma's Flower Garden project too. ;o)

Here are my scraps. For me, anything less then a quarter of a yard and/or less then a fat quarter, goes into one of these bins by color.

The bins and shelving came from Target. The bins come in Black or a Gray Metal finish. I spray painted the gray bins, white. There are 9 of them.

1. Red, 2. Oranges & Yellows, 3. Black & Grays, 4. White & Cream, 5. Green, 6. Blues & Purples, 7. Brown, 8. Pinks and 9. Halloween {I'm saving all Halloweenish fabric scraps to make a Halloween string quilt someday}

I would love to share my projects with you and show you how I use my scraps!

What say you?
Would you like to follow along?
Would you like to Sew some of your Scraps?

Would you like to Sew Scraps Along with Me?

How bout, 4 {maybe 5} easy peasy scrappy projects ?!

These won't be Start to Finish projects. But that's O.K. because I'll show you how I organize my scrappy projects. {most scrappy projects are a work in progress for a while}. It's all super simple and you can do it too.

{I'll help ya get organized, and get ya started on the project. Then we'll move on to the next project. We'll do this like 4 or 5 times! Then you'll have FOUR or FIVE uberly cool Scrappy Projects to work on whenever you get the fancy to.}

Oh. And I say 4 maybe 5 because I might just cave and show you my 2010 Scrappy Quilt I'm working on.

2. Please RSVP in the form of a comment on this post. I would love to know who's going to be following and playing along. Oh! And please ask any questions you might have, so I'll be sure to answer them.

3. Gather your scraps together in one place. i.e. a Basket, Box, Bins, or a plain ol free brown paper garbage sack. Whatever works for you.

All done? K. Get ready for about 5 weeks of Scrappy Goodness! Not sure how many posts I'll publish each week. But each week I'll feature a different Scrappy project and some other good stuff too!

At the end of each week, we'll have a little Linky Party where you can share the start of your Scrappy projects! Or your scraps. Or how you organize your scraps. Or a previous scrappy project you've done! All kinds of scrappy goodness!

Okey Dokey? Make a List and Check it Twice. Today's list includes 3 things to do {see the list above}. And we'll get this Sew Scraps Along party started!

Oh and you just might be interested to know that some of my bloggy friends are joining in the fun! And I hear they're cleaning out some of their scraps. Wonder what they'll do with all those scraps? Wonder if they'll throw them away? Or maybe they'll bury them in the bottom of their closet?

You know what would be really cool?... If they gave them away. hmmmmm... Perhaps I just dropped a really big hint. {tee hee}
