Here is some progress on my Liberty Scrap Piecing Project, inspired by Karen at Just Get It Done Quilts. She makes really bright and joyful strips like this. The Liberty fabric is more subtle and incredibly beautiful. Using it in this way means I will never waste a single scrap! But what to make with them? Not sure yet, but just making them is enough for now!
I have a little shop where you can find the things I create here in my cottage in Northumberland, plus some treasures from my creative friends.

Kate, so sorry about Norma’s loss. What a lovely and loving cat she was. I so enjoy your channel. My mum was born in Scotland and you put me in mind of my Scottish Nana whose name was Agnes like your granddaughter. I feel so at home visiting your channel and you are a good virtual friend for me as I too live alone with my miniature dachshund and am a quilter. Thanks for enriching my life from afar.

Oh you have to have many projects; they say that a change is as good as a rest, after all! So sometimes I crochet a doily or darn a sock or repair a bedspread that got a tear in it, and I refer to cotton dishcloths as my 'palate-cleanser' when I need a break from a more-challenging project. At least we'll never be bored, eh?

My newest stray cat looks very much like your 'helper'. I'm doing some crumb piecing while I am listening to you, so this video is quite appropriate! Karen and MoStar inspired me as well. Although I do take something special, like a flower, a tiny pirate head, animal head, and work it into the quilt, along with the occasional HST, or use a flying geese block that looks like a roof on a 'house'. Something to tell kids to look for! EDITED to add: I watched that video of Jenny at Missouri Star right after I had a bone in my left hand removed (it was very arthritic). Soooo...I couldn't put any pressure on my hand to hold a ruler down to cut...but Jenny saved me with the crumb quilting. I had shoe boxes of scraps that I merrily sewed together. I couldn't use my thumb, but I got the hang of holding small pieces of fabric between my index and middle fingers. I also learned to tie my shoes without using my thumb for a week or two. Much better now. I loved the crumb quilting so much! Memories. It's useful. It's beautiful.

I am loving your strip sets of red and blue. I'm trying to get a handle on my scraps. I used my tiny tiny leftovers from a quilt I made and decoupaged a few metal containers to put in the room with the quilt. It adds a bit of color that coordinates with the quilt. I can put pencils, etc in the containers, too, and put in my sewing room. You can do this with plant pots and put them on the table in the garden in Summer. Sweet Rita is just so beautiful. The Agnes top is looking gorgeous. I love my garden in Winter. I like to see it taking a nap till warmer weather. Have a wonderful day!

As I sit here knitting calmly Missy sitting on the arm of my chair waiting to be stroked watching you sew I, m at peace with the world. I've been going through other videos and came across taking care 9 where you talked about knitting technique. I knit quickly and do so by tucking my right needle under my arm, the left loose, I hardly have to move my fingers as I wind the wool over. It might be called Irish knitting but I, m scottish and this is how my mum taught me. I probably haven't explained it very well and I, m not confident enough to make a video of how I knit though I've been knitting for 65 ish years. Xx

And I have no creative energy to quilt it has been almost two years now. I have tons of fabrick, but no desire to create. Bye the way I use the small scraps to make dog beds. I use soft and warm for the out side fabrics and I stuff with the leftover scraps. That way it is totally washable and dry able.

Agnes's quilt is beautiful! Something I'm sure she'll treasure forever. Before you blink she'll be sewing with you and starting on her first quilt! I made a queensize quilt with the method Jenny uses for scraps. It is all batiks because I could never part with my scraps and whenever I saw a good sale on batik fabric I was compelled to "build my stash". I was making and selling tote bags at the time and saved every scrap. I did use some fat quarters when I realized that I was going to actually make a quilt - I like you need more than one project going - and the scrap blocks were my fill in. I did cheat and buy a 1/2 yard of yellow batik when I ran out of yellow scraps very early on. I backed it with linen and it is on my bed summer and winter it always cheers me up but if it gets too bright I flip it to the natural linen side for a bit. I'm going to start the leaders and enders - I always just used scrap pieces and sewed randomly just as easy to sew a quarter inch and make it productive! Thank you I'd never seen this before.

An idea for your strip piecing..some time ago I made a quilt for my sister using strip sets similarly to those you are making. I sewed strips together to make a center square, then surrounded it with white. The next round was strip set, again followed by white. I continued this way until it was the size I wanted. You could, of course, use any color you wanted to replace the white I used. The binding was also scrappy. You could alternate your pink and blue if you wanted. Have lots of fun quilting!

Hello Kate ~ Your projects have kept you company this winter. I noticed Agnes's quilt on the wall. It is looking spectacular. I finally bound my gnome Christmas table runner. The days I would pick up my granddaughters from school I would sit in my vehicle and sew (or read). I found the natural lighting was better for my eyes. I took another sewing class and I am currently working on Cathedral Windows. It will be a decorative pillow for my younger granddaughter. I have decided that the smaller projects are more likely to get done. (eventually) I can do a bit when I feel more in the mood to sew and feel as if I am accomplishing something. I guess I feel as if the finale is near! Do have a good week. Stay safe and healthy.

There are so many ways to lay out the strips of strips. Turn them into blocks, cut diaganally into HSTs, use them for borders or sashings, alternate directions of square blocks of them like Rail Fence blocks or checkerboard. Yes, a worthy project. ))) Pet all the kits for us.

Just struck me!! MAKE A RAIL FENCE out of them. I think it would be beautiful.

Great idea for the fish 🐠 and chips scraps packages. Will definitely be on the lookout. Thank you for taking the time to make the packets.

I do love Karen from justgetitdonequilts as well. And you've re-inspired me to continue the strip sets and I love the idea of the small squares for leaders and enders. And last but not least , Agnes' quilt is so lovely can't wait to see it completed

Good morning☃️I really enjoy your videos…you mentioned the branches in the moonlight…I am a watercolor painter and I think of that as ‘nature’s lace’ when the sun or moon backlights the bare trees❤️and hugs from Minnesota ☃️❄️❄️❄️

I love this. I did the same to use up some of mountain of scraps I have. I used packing paper I saved. I cut the papers in different sizes and added fabric in any way I wanted. They are so beautiful when they are squared up. So much fun!

Oh, yes! Looking forward to all the this-and-that you have in store for us 😍

You could also use a few scraps as filler in your Christmas boxes…or other shipping items. Very creative with so many ideas already!

I’ve listened along whilst making my 10” scrappy blocks. I started these last November and was delighted when Jenny of MSQC was doing the same and now you too Kate. I decided I’d have an early night but just couldn’t resist putting some more pieces together. It’s very addictive!

Never really understood there was a future usefulness for leaders and Enders until now. I use a leader or ‘sewing spider’ when doing general sewing, but am now going to be more productive by sewing squares ‘together’. Thanks Kate. Lovely video.

Thank you Kate, that was enjoyable. I too use leaders and enders and have a container full. Not sure what I’m going to do with them yet. See you on the LGS. Cheers from Melbourne.

I too loved the crumb quilt video by Missouri Star. This is my rendition.

I don't do much sewing these days, my machine is hinky. But there is something so cathartic (is that the right word?) about watching you sew away and have a good chit chat - especially these days with all the crazy noise from the politicians and other mind boggling goings-on. Thank you Kate, your house is such a wonderful retreat, for mind and soul!
