I had to think about it. Of course, I didn't have just 1. Here's my list:<br />

You've probably all seen these magnetic pin bowls in the quilt stores. Anything magnetic will work, but it might as well be cute. I rarely use pins, but when I am using them, a magnetic bowl comes in handy. These past few months, I've made almost 500 masks for Covid19. And I did pin, and this bowl sure came in handy. </div>

Somewhere along the way, I got into a habit of using tags. I start and stop sewing with them. I don't get those birds nests on the back of my fabric when I start sewing. My rule is to trim at the tag, and leave the tail of thread on what I'm sewing. <a href="http://amaidenhairfern.blogspot.com/2012/01/tags.html">This post better explains how and why I use tags.</a></div>

I love this light gray for sewing a quilt top together (notice the shade above). It blends well with all colors. </div>

I use these quilting rag sheers when I'm cutting strips on a raggy binding. It's much faster, and easier on the hands. <a href="http://amaidenhairfern.blogspot.com/2012/05/play-quilts-w-raggy-binding-tutorial.html">Here is a post about raggy bindings.</a> and <a href="http://amaidenhairfern.blogspot.com/2014/10/rag-sheers.html">another post about rag sheers.</a></div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Singer Feather Weight. This machine is my traveling buddy. It goes to retreats, on trips, mostly when ever I need to transport a machine. It's easy for other people to use if someone needs a machine. It's light weight and travels well, unless you are going into a foreign country, which is not recommended (from experience!!) This is also my back-up machine when my regular Pfaff is getting a check up. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">**NOTE- I do not recommend changing machines in the middle of a quilt. Your seam allowances will be off . </span></div>

So I decided to try scrap strips instead to see if I could lesson my scrap mountain. I put my scraps into piles strips that were about the same length. </div>
<br /><br />
<br />
I had 6 or 7 piles of different lengths. I pulled two from the first pile (let's say they were 5 inch strips), and sewed them together, then without cutting strings, I sewed 2 together from the next pile (lets say they were 7 inch strips), and on down through all the piles. <br />

100 days? really? Making a crumb quilt is so addicting! After 30 days, I had enough for 2 queen size quilts!! That's A LOT of therapy, folks! And all for FREE!!! No buying fabric. Pull out ALL your scraps, even from those nooks and crannies, the ones that you were saving as a set just cuz you might use them some day.</div>

You start by sewing 2 pieces together that are the same size, and look good together. And you do that for a long time. The idea is that if you are sewing 2 pieces together that are squared before sewing, you won't have a bunch of trimming to do after you press. <span style="font-size: x-small;">(keep your long scissors close to your machine, and square pieces as you choose them, no pressing)</span></div>

Then after you've done a bunch, you take those together and do the same thing. Find pieces that are about the same size, and look good next to each other, and sew them together. For. a. long. time. </div>

<span style="text-align: start;">My regular machine is getting a check up. This Singer Featherweight was made in the Czech Republic in the 40's. It sews a solid stitch, never wavering, a very good back-up. You can find them on e-bay, and they are relatively easy to maintain. Notice my big scissors there, you will need to keep them in a handy place to help square up pieces. You don't have to be exact, just eye-ball it. Seam allowances don't really matter. </span></div>

Towards the end, you'll have big squares that you try to fit together like a big puzzle. You night need to trim some back or add to one to make it fit into the your finished top.<br />

I learned this technique from the amazing Amanda at Crazy Mom Quilts. You can find her instructions <a href="http://crazymomquilts.blogspot.com/2015/06/scrap-vortex-qal-week-one.html">here</a>. Thank you Amanda! We miss you :(</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In Amanda's blog posts on Crumb quilts, she gave us permission to throw away scraps that we didn't like. You know, we hang onto them because you can't waste them. Hmmmmmm, one of those scraps is probably worth maybe a nickel. If you hold it up and it doesn't bring you joy? ** Thank it and throw it out!!!! WOW! It felt sooooo good to throw out those few scraps that have been haunting my scrap bag all these years. And I will like those crumb quilt tops for years to come, cuz I didn't try to fit ugly scraps into them that I just couldn't throw away.</div>

The reason why this quilt took so long (a year!), is that I buried all those beginning and end threads into the middle of the quilt. Thank goodness for the tennis open and some other championships that were going on. </div>

There probably aren't too many 8's in there since there are 6 threads to bury on that one.<br />

It must be that time of year, for the temperatures are changing and the acorns are lining the streets, that time of year when<span style="text-align: center;"> I can go all over the world and see the latest creations in quilting . . . all while sitting at home in my pj's, eating my favorite cereal. No tickets to buy, no long lines to wait in, no miles of walking.</span></div>

When our grand children turn 4, I like to make a quilt for them. By that age in their life they usually have some sort of obsession. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I saw the pattern for this kitty quilt, I fell in love with it, and knew it was the perfect pattern for our 4 year old kitty loving grand daughter so we went to go buy fabric together.</div>
