This month, I attended the second annual scrap summit hosted by Nicki at The Ruffled Purse. With 26 presentations/workshops spread over four days, it was an inspiring deep dive into quilting with scraps. I have finished five quilts since the Summit!
Scrap quilts are made from the leftovers of other projects or repurposed textiles. I like the idea of approaching zero waste with my quilting and love the ingenious ways quilters have devised to use every little bit of fabric
Some of my favorite presenters included:
- Sewforever Quilting by Becky Campbell
- Pola Quilting
- Amira at The Little Mushroom Cap
- Coach Jenni Grover
- Jennifer Houlden of Quilts by Jen
- Toni at Just Beachy Studio
- Rita Haldar of Designs by RSH
- And of course, Nicki Hibbits of The Ruffled Purse
Inspired by all I learned, I have several projects in the queue and started reorganizing my scraps. I’m excited to try some new techniques and put my scraps to good use.
Happy creating!
