So many Scraps

Updated: Jul 31

I am making some crumb patchwork pants and saw when lining up that I was creating so many scraps. I put them in a bowl as I work and saw that the pile was growing and that the mix created a pleasing visual effect.

Enoough in there to create a piece of ScrapFabric. I decided to do it randomly so I just poured the scraps onto the table as they came out.

Its pretty enough as is to frame or bind and put on the wall or it can be used to make a purse.
