Scraps

This may or may not surprise you, but I have piles of half-square triangles just laying around my quilt room.  There are a few methods for creating HSTs and some of those methods create a byproduct of smaller HSTs.   Recently I did just a couple of quick projects to use them up.

The first quilt was a byproduct of this little quilt top.

I played around with my HSTs trying to find a layout that I like.

Here's what I finally went with, all quilted up.

That quilt is teeny! The second one I made is more of a table runner size and it's a byproduct of the Suburbs quilt I made for my Uncle Wayne. Lots of leftover HSTs again.

All pieced and quilted up with a nice backing.

Also, sweet binding.

Pretty nice, the stuff you can make from just scraps sometimes.
