I’m taking my time and being very thorough with the sewing room set up. Yesterday that meant a major scrap sort!
Presort:
-And post sort!
I’m not great about using my little scraps but maybe if they are sorted by color I will? In any case, I have more than I’ll ever use and should give some to you. Comment with your two favorite colors and I’ll pick a couple of winners on Monday. A scrap pack will then be on it’s way to you! Good luck and happy weekend to you all!
Orange and green! I was looking through my paltry bag of scraps yesterday and I definitely need to build some up for some projects I’d like to do.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Blue & Green! Love your baskets!
I love scraps! Do I really have to pick a color? All those baskets look gorgeous to me!
Oh! I am so excited! I LOVE blue & green! The baskets you are using are so cute! Someday my quilt room will be so colorful!
Oh I would pick green and brown. A colour combo I love and need to break away from but just can’t.
I love Red & Orange! Your scraps look great–thanks so much for such a great giveaway!
Ooooh scrappy goodness! I love sorting through other peoples scraps!
Orange and pink. Love that combination!
They all look so great, but brown and green are my favorite colors. What a great giveaway! Thanks so much.
My 2 favorite colors are red and black, but I hardly ever use them when quilting….
When quilting I use a lot of blues and yellows!
I love the lime greens and aquas! I dread sorting scraps but seeing yours all sorted just made me add this to my todo list for this weekend.
The baskets look gorgeous!
Greens and Oranges! Thanks for the chance to enter, your baskets are really cute! =)
How pretty … I love those baskets! And what a wonderful giveaway – I am currently working on a large string quilt and your scraps would make a lovely addition. My favorite colors are pink and orange!
I applaud you for taking time to set everything up so nicely. My closet is tidy, but not nearly as organized as you. I have good intentions, but once I set foot in my sewing room all I want to do is sew and any thoughts of cleaning or organizing fly right out the window!
Thanks for sharing your scraps – my favorite two colors would have to be reds and blues!
Really hard, mmm I will pick my girls favorite colors right now, pink and orange
Ooh! I love a good scrap sort. It’s so cathartic. I’m a purple and green girl, myself.
Pink and Blue!
Love scraps. I always feel like I’ve made something for free when I use them up! And, I have always loved blue and green together.
I love the browns and violet/reds. Thanks for sharing!
I’ve been on an orange kick lately, loving deep, rich oranges. Really all deep, jewel colors! As for another color, blue is always my go-to favorite, but I’ll go with yellow since I realized how few yellow fabrics I have in my stash. thanks for the giveaway!
Right now I;m loving green and brown. Earth tones always appeal to me but bright is good too. It’s so hard to pick a favorite color….happy cleaning!
That would be green and blue!
I love scraps and my stash is low on purple/lavender and orange/peach! You are so kind to give away your scraps!
blue and orange!
Are those brown and black scraps I see? If those are brown and black scraps then brown and black would be wonderful.
I love scraps! I’m doing a scrappy leaders & enders project and need more scraps to cut up into 2″ squares.
I’d love to have some of your purple and green (or yellow!) scraps. I literally have 2 (yes, TWO) purple print scraps and my green (and yellow) scraps are sorely lacking. I feel kind of bad for them. I need to be a little more well rounded with my scraps. Ha.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I’m making a doll quilt out of purple scraps for my niece(its her favorite color), only I don’y have any purple scraps. This would be awesome!
I would also love the aqua.
orange and brown! thanks!
What a good idea….My stash defitely is lacking in green and pink so those would be my first choices. I LOVE scrappy quilts!
how nice of you to share! I love blue and orange, well actually I love blue and my son loves orange so now I find myself gravitating to orange too
I’m loving orange and green right now. Fun!
I’m jealous of your organizational prowess!
Scraps are so much fun. I love scrappy quilts. I always have a soft spot for orange and yellow.
So nice of you to share and so impressive for you to have color coordinating baskets for your scraps. My favorites are pink and brown. Thank you!
I know what I most gravitate toward, but would rather try something I might not be inclined to purchase. I recently saw a sample of purples and bright greens that caught my eye, so I would like to try those colors. Thank you for the nice offer.
Thanks for sharing your scraps! My favs are blue and green
By the way, a lady contacted me through our New Orleand MQG page and wanted to send me some issues of “FabShop News” to pass around at our next meeting. I was reading through it and saw that you & the MQG were featured in an article! How exciting!
My scraps are also sorted by color into boxes. It works great for me – if I’m evaluating a project/block and decide that it needs a bit of x color, I know where to look.
As for colors, I’m currently “collecting” for a red and aqua quilt.
I adore scraps and have made some really fun things out of them! If I win I would love orange and green — my FAVES right now! Thanks for the chance!
I have my scraps sorted by shape. Probably not the most efficient way….color makes more sense. Love your little baskets. I am collecting red, white, blue scraps and small scale prints of any color for a couple of projects on the back burner. Thanks for the chance!
I sorted my scraps into plastic rolling carts with drawers. Each drawer holds a different color and I use a lot more of my scraps now!
My colors of 2010 so far are orange and aqua.
Ooh! so pretty! I love the greens and the browns!!!!
Hope I win!…
When sorting scraps I am always torn between three options: 1. Will I use the scrap bin to find that little piece of yellow for the center of my flower or 2. Will I be making a scrap quilt based on lights and darks or 3. Will I be looking for strips of fabrics of all colors.
Here’s my dilemma: for options 1, sort scraps by color, but for option 2, sort scraps light and dark and for options 3, sort by size and shape
So, do we have a red box, arranged by light and dark? Are the strips in with the triangles? How can we grab all the lights if they are all mixed in by color.
ARGH!!! and the big question is: Why dig for that itty bitty piece when I have HUGE yardage enough to last me 5 lifetimes???
You see why life makes me crazy?
Oops, forgot to let you know my fav colors: right now, probably red and aqua. I am collecting to make a sofa quilt. I am also make an orange and teal sofa quilt. Thanks!
If I absolutely HAD to pick I would go with blue and orange… but they are all so beautiful! I love scraps!!
I love your scraps! That basket of green looks tempting, and I love red too.
How delightful! Green and orange are definitely my current faves. We’re moving into a new house soon and I’m planning to fill the walls with mini-quilts.
well I can’t say they are my fav, but I am def short on greens and blues and need to boost those color sections! Yay for new spaces!
Ahhh, scraps. I don’t have enough! I love green and orange or green and red. Ok really, I like them all!
green and blue…what a great idea..this maybe my motivation…
I love pink and tan. Your scraps are so organized!
I love the purple and green. Good job getting organized!
