Playing...

When I showed you these scraps,


I intended to play with them!


And this is the result....

the back...

the back first, before I ironed it!

This measures just 11 and 1/4 inches.


As does this one!

the back...

I'm thinking of either combining them into a mini,

I even like the angles of the seams in this one...
with another one.

Or should I keep them separate?


I have plenty more of these scraps to play with,


 in the meantime!

Happy sewing!

Very pretty scraps - I see a series of minis coming on xxx

Rachaeldaisy said...

Wonderful! I'd keep them seperate and keep playing to see what other formations you come up with.

Oooo!! love the scrappy block, interested to see what you end up doing.

Kirsty @ Bonjour Quilts said...

oooh, got enough for nine blocks? 3 x 3 set up. I could see a starburst pattern with your second block as the centre, then 4 of your first block as each diagonal corner, then another 4 blocks in the centre of each edge.
Lotta work though, sorry!

I love them. Great 'playing' came up with great ideas.

Marg said...

I think keep them separate too. I wonder how many different combinations you can come up with.

Mary said...

Ohhhhh! I love these! And how tiny! I think you should keep them separate as well. It is a series. Isn't it fun to just play around without any worry of getting it right!

So very fun. I'd keep them separate but it might depend on what the rest of your little pile turns into.

Those are so cute! What tiny pieces. I like the above comment of the starburst. You could also make a few more and frame them in white and then put them together into a table topper or wall ganging. I think if you keep them separate you may loose them.
I look forward to seeing what else becomes of those pretty scraps.

Vicki said...

So much fun! They'd make great cushion covers...maybe front and back?

Jess @ Elven Garden Quilts said...

They are gorgeous! Soooo tiny though, I don't know how you can have the patience!

Canadian Abroad said...

Those are so cute! Love the pops of colour.

pandchintz said...

What fun! Hmm, I'm thinking separate.

Karen said...

They look stunning. I think I agree with keeping them separate.

Leanne said...

What fun! If you made some more you could piece them into a much larger quilt.

Heather D. said...

So cool Susan! I'm torn, I like them separate but also like the idea of a bunch of them made into a larger project!

DeborahGun said...

these are just the sweetest - I think they would make amazing minis. Glad you are finding some time to play :-)

Deb Cox said...

Separate please (-: and loverly.

I love those tiny pieces. I would keep them separate or make another of each and then combine them.

FlourishingPalms said...

Cute, cute, cute! They look like a pillow back and front. You could do that and call it done... if you're wanting to move on to something else.

CATHY DANIEL said...

You played well! They are both really effective in their own ways and I think 'keep them separate' .. but what do I know! You will decide the right thing. ;) xCathy

Karen @ Pieces of Contentment said...

Very clever! I love the first, like mini shadow boxes. It will be interesting to see what you make from the next batch of scraps.

Nat at Made in Home said...

Such a creative use of scraps,with a beautiful finish. I say keep them separate..

OPQuilt said...

Love both, but very fun to keep them separate. I can't wait to see what they came from (their mother-ship block). You may have started a new trend!
