Brief Description: I used plenty of pins and needles to make this quilt, with scraps of Aristocats fabric my mom sent me. The black was from my stash, and the blue binding was purchased to finish it off, but everything else was scraps, including the batting.

Brief Description: The hot air balloon blocks have been in my stash for 12 years, as they were leftover from making a baby quilt then. I made the 4 patches and inner turquoise borders fat quarters mom sent me. The pink borders are leftover from a quilt backing. The bindings both came from precut sets of 2.5" strips that mom also sent. The batting was scrap from larger quilts.

Brief Description: Half of these rainbow blocks (and the making for 7/8ths of the rest) were leftover from a baby quilt I made 15 years ago. I had 20 done, and the strip sets for 2 rows of another 20, but I was missing a strip of pink to finish the rest off. I used a similar pink from my stash, and managed to make another 19 blocks, giving me 39. That gave me enough to make 2 small kid quilts, one square and one rectangle. I loved clearing these out of my stash, and giving them purpose!
