Welcome to the first post in our new eco-friendly quilt series Sustainable Quilting 101: Fabric and Batting Scraps! After I wrote about how I organize my fabric, the most frequently asked question was, “How do you organize your scraps?”
The short answer—I don’t.
Happy New Year, friends! If you’re anything like me, your scrap bins are positively overflowing from last year’s projects. One of my quilty resolutions for this year is to use more scraps than I make. So with that in mind, let’s make a scrappy quilt!
Quilty friends, have you ever considered working with fabrics other than our beloved quilting cottons? Maybe you’re thinking of making a memory quilt, or perhaps you’re just looking for more cost-effective fabric options. No matter the reason, this guide to upcycling fabric for quilting is for you!
With the summer’s end rapidly approaching I am looking forward to all the coziness of fall. Early fall is what I like to consider the beginning of quilt snuggling season, aka the season where I spend as much time as possible swaddled in quilts.
