I love my scraps

This is kinda the pineapple idea for my gift

Along with this

I think the recipient will like it. 

I know I would

Cleaned up an area and wanted a little mindless sewing

Found a long cutoff strip of batting

And around the same size piece of fabric from the quilt show bag

Put them together

And grabbed my strip pile container and stitched and flipped to make a long piece.

I then trimmed the sides even and it said to me it wanted to be a bag......

And 3 mugrugs

Not bad for stuff some would throw away

Unfortunately the string container doesnt show a dent.......just made a little breathing room for the overflowing strips

As I was sewing nilly willy on this I thought of all the cool things I could make

Zip bags of all sizes

Mugrugs

Join a few qayg style for placemats 

Or runners

Even a cute tote bag

Potholders

Pillow 

A fast way to use up scraps. 

I used scraps of fabric cutoffs and strings

I even used partial pieced section

Batting cutoffs 

Binding scraps

Scraps make me happy 

I think i will gather all my mugrugs and put them in a basket in the mailroom for people to take as a merry Christmas from me

A good way to play in my stash

And put a smile on someone

If you remember my last play day i pieced squares and made 3 mugrugs too

I know i made a ton throughout the year. 

Hoping for at least 20 or so
