Sunday sorting -
Sunday I had fun sorting through the Big Box of Magical Things -
First pulling the larger pieces out and setting them aside -
In the pile on the left are good sized chunks of calicos -
The center pile has Elvis - gotta love Elvis - LOL -
The pile on the right has various fabrics including some cool "Chicago Bears" -
My grandsons are fans of another team - so I thought of using that on the back of a Halloween quilt - the colors are right - LOL - ;))
Then I sorted the rest -
I made a pile of batiks - for another confetti quilt -
Other chunks roughly by color and size -
A pile of children and novelty prints -
Triangles -
Bits and pieces -
Solids -
Homespuns - and plaids -
Strips of various sizes -
And block parts -
I have some scrap quilts that have been on my "to do" list for a while -
So I pulled out a couple of my dies -
And will start with the larger scraps -
Working my way down to the smaller ones -
To see if I can get a head start on those scrap quilts -
And make some sort of a dent in this Big Box of Magical Things - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I need to take at least one box or drawer or bag of magical things and do some scrap busting too.
I am sure my scraps are breeding.
Way to go girl....I have a box and/or bag(s) to take care of myself. Hugs.
Isn’t it a good feeling to sort fabric? I enjoy handling fabric, so I do that too. “Magical things”? I’m not so sure, or else they don’t possess the magical power to STAY sorted! Lol!
I am completely overwhelmed with fabric, from yardage to tiny scraps. What die shapes will you use?
I have been sorting through books and magazines. I have quite the collection from over 35 years of quilting and 50 years of crocheting!
I have no idea what I will do with the "don't want" pile that keeps getting bigger and bigger by the day!
After the books & magazines I get to start on the "magical mystery totes". . . and who knows what I will find in there! LOL
Have a lovely day.
Looks like you are having fun! Can't wait to see what beautiful things you create.
