Three plastic bags of trash - all of it pieces and strips smaller than 1"! In the scrap box were also some left over binding strips. A while back I read on a blog (sorry, can't remember which one) about saving these on a roll, and use them to bind scrap quilts. So taking the writer's advice I have dutifully pieced mine together and rolled them onto a TP tube, but obviously there were some of an older date in the box - they have now been added to the strips on the roll, but still need pressing in the joints before I can roll it up:
I have started some Xmas presents, not sure how much to show here, since I don't really know who will stop by and have a look ;o) But this is what Bernie and I have been doing today - we're about half finished:
And some mail box goodness - my copy of A Quilter's Holiday arrived today!

Helen Stubbings is having a new pattern out, a lovely quilt called "Life is Beautiful" - and in honor of it she is having a pattern pack giveaway:

Åå så deilig å få ryddet i restehaugen- du har vært kjempeflink! Gled deg til boka- den er kjempefin :-)
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog :o)
I can see you've been busy with these scraps! I try to organize while I do the cutting all the time, but it's so easy to just throw it in a bin for later... Great idea with the TP rolling:o) I think I'll have that in mind for later:o)
That book looks nice, is it a book with patterns like the SBS you made? I love that one, and I hope to do it one day, after the DJ of corse:o)
Have a great weekend,
