Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Other

Style: Cute, Whimsical


Materials

Cotton Fabric scraps from old projects

What was your inspiration?

How to use scraps. I love paper piecing and decided to start using my small scraps to make some paper piecing blocks. I used scraps of fabric with cats that were left over from a "cat" quilt I made for my son's cat, Toji. (Sounds complicated, but the quilt was made of fabric with cats on it and it was made for a cat. LOL)

What are you most proud of?

I just love the finished product. This pillow will be a gift to a cat lover.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Well, try paper piecing.
