Cleaning up some odds and ends

Cleaning out that bag of larger scraps (posted about yesterday) turned out to be very interesting.  Some of the pieces in there were nearly a yard - much bigger than I was expecting.  Some of the pieces were already cut into squares or rectangles.  And hiding in the middle . . . a paper pieced block.

This butterfly block was something I experimented with a couple of years ago, and then decided there were WAY too many tiny pieces to use the pattern for a whole quilt of these blocks.  So evidently it was mistakenly folded in with some yardage, and forgotten.  Hmmm - this might make a good mug rug.

The colorful print full of faces was already cut into 3.5" x 6.5" bricks, plus about 1/4 yard remaining.  There were 9 of the bricks, so I pulled out another piece big enough to cut 9 more bricks.  So this little 18" square will become another doll quilt fairly soon.

And the snowman print was folded up with a bunch of 4-patch blocks.  There was enough of the snowmen to cut squares to alternate with the 4-patches.  Another future doll quilt - this one 16" square.  If I remember correctly this fabric was left over from a table runner. 

So, the other things from that scrap bag have been cut into parts for pillowcases, or placed back into the appropriate drawers of the stash.  I have a list of what is needed to finish those pillowcases.  Some might be found in the stash, or I'll buy just enough needed.

In between working on the scrap bag projects, I also made more baby churn dash blocks.  These were made of scraps too, and there are nearly enough for a crib sized quilt.
