Yesterday was spent at church, helping a neighbor, watching a Baby E, and delivering some furniture that was purchased at our sale. I did sneak away for just a bit to play with the vintage scraps I cut last week.

These squares finish at 1 inch. I had enough cut to make a couple more rows but I thought that would throw this all out of proportion. So I made another tiny top.

I have a lot of cleaning and laundry to do today but I hope to add borders and prepare these for quilting.
One thing I find very helpful when working with tiny pieces, is to starch the scraps well before cutting. Some of these vintage bits are loosely woven fabric and the starch really helps it to behave.
Linking up with Judy for DWMonday and Marelize for Anything Goes Monday.

So sweet! and so tiny!
I love all those scraps!
Oh such tiny squares! It’s very cute.
Great tip about the starch! Then, once the piece is done, it can be easily washed out so as not to attract little bugs who like the starch. Thanks so much for the idea!
Really lovely – love starch for bias, never thought of it for small pieces!
Those are sweet. It reminds me of things my grandma had.
Oh, I just *love* the vintage look.
this is just adorable, I LOVE It!!!! hope you find time to sew today and put the borders on
thanks for sharing
