Good morning. This is my first ScrapHappy post and thanks to Kate I’m now part of the ScrapHappy group.
I am a very new quilter and have years and years of quilting yet to be caught up with but since I started in March of this year I’ve enjoyed every minute.
I started with an old duvet cover and a few old pillow cases as I needed to start with cutting and joining to see if I had what it took.
One quilt later and a couple of table runners and place mats ( these were hand sewn with hexies) I had a fair few scraps left.
If I’m not sewing I’m reading about quilting or watching YouTube videos about the different types of quilting I could learn.
The placement I have made out of scraps has two processes involved in it … Paper Piecing & Prairie Points. It was a combination of machine sewing and hand sewing. It was my first attempt and I’m quite pleased with it.
Here’s to the next ScrapHappy project next month !

Love your new placemat, very pretty and a good use of the leftovers from the duvet cover! And I spy another familiar quilt in the background 🙂
It would be great if you could link to the others, or at least back to my ScrapHappy post so that people can click through and see what the other members are doing?
