Hi! I'm retired and am now able to use the stash that I built while I was working and it is so much fun! I'm finding ways to organize my enormous scrap piles and batting scraps and learning new techniques and methods from others. My goal is to make more handmade gifts for family and friends, using my small warehouse of quilt and crafting supplies. I'm also a planner and am working on methods for tracking projects and planning things out into the future so I'm not waiting until the last minute to make a gift and then finding out...rats..not enough time! LOL.
Scraps! My system. Assessing fabric chunks, what sizes to cut them and how to store them!
In this video, I go into more detail about how I cut up my scraps, my thought process, how I store them and what I do with them!
If you want more information on cutting and organizing your scraps, I highly recommend @quiltingwithlori and her scrap cutting system. She also has a couple books out explaining her system and giving you patterns to make with your 'now pre-cut' fabrics! Speedy Solutions to Cut and Organize Your Scrap Stash
The frame I use for the placemat loom and my rug loom are from the book Rugs from Rags by Country Threads.

Great ideas.
@@normatulloch376 Thank you! Gotta find what works for you. Everyone has different styles of 'stashing'.
try lifting your camera a bit , so its looking directly at your face not up at your face. You are expressive and entertaining. I want to see more, what are you working on today?🙂
@@dixiequilters I'm actually working on my Quarterly UFO Challenge for Crazy Moose Fabrics. It's the Judie's Album quilt but the kits were only for Blocks 1, 2 and 3 of month 1 of a Block of the month challenge. I've been obsessed. Once I got the blocks pieced, it looked terrible and needed setting triangles to add space between the blocks. So I've been cutting triangles and figuring out 'math' and taking advil for the pain in my brain. LOL.
@@lizwarnke4689 no wonder you. get so much accomplished. You sound very focused. I am only that focused now and then. Take care of yourself, fresh air, lots of water. reduce caffeine. ha ha bossy me.
@@dixiequilters LOL. I also consider taking care of myself my new part-time job. I just bundled up and went out in the frigid weather and got the rest of my 10,000 steps. It felt good. Brisk fresh air. Now that I finished that, I can look at the pieces for the Coriander BOM.
Your quilting projects are amazing! Loved the Mexican Star. Thanks for the shut out - my fam was impressed 😀
@@JKerr-mw3yn Your tip for the handle elevated my bag to extreme excellence level!
I'm curious what sizes you cut your scraps into - are they just blocks, or strips and blocks? I have a lot a lot of smaller pieces I keep on hand and this might be a good way to organize them. thanks
@@twistedcreekstitches0773 For blocks I cut 10", 8", 5", 4 1/2", 3 1/2", 2 1/2" and 1 1/2". Then for strips I cut 2 1/2". Strips smaller than that go in another bin. If they are thinner than 3/4", they go into the 'stuffing' bag. If strips are smaller than about 2 inches in length, they go in my crumb bags. For the most part. I sometimes end up with slightly bigger pieces in the crumb bag too. Weirdly angled pieces also go in the crumb bag. Those have actually been interesting to work with. I've been putting triangles (like the triangles cut off from sewing binding together), in a separate container which I'll be examining at some point in my lifetime.
Good morning and happy Wednesday! My goodness, you got a lot of sewing done! That is one gorgeous table topper with the little mini quilt blocks in it. You never would have found one to buy that had the little notch for the lamp, let alone one that's so stunning. Love the tans & browns you chose, with just enough cream to make the blocks pop against the black background. Great use of scraps for sure., and of course it'll coordinate beautifully with the original project. Speaking of which, using different quilt stitches in different areas of the runner was a terrific plan; really adds some great visual texture to the finished project. Well, let's face it - all the projects in this video are lovely. I don't know how you manage to find the time to do them all! I guess ten minutes here, 30 minutes there really add up.
@@susanowen1709 Thanks so much for the wonderful compliments! Being retired has helped with having time to quilt plus winter helps a lot too. During the spring, summer and fall there is lots of outdoor stuff with gardening and mowing. I also found that if I turn on my Bernina, first thing in the morning, I tend to stop there and work for a few minutes whenever I'm in that part of the house. Just doing that has helped me to sew a lot more during the day. I had to tell my husband, 'DO NOT TURN OFF THAT MACHINE!' He goes around the house turning off lights constantly but he is forbidden from turning off my sewing machine. LOL.
The Mexican Stars is beautiful!
@@sharondauz880 Thank you so much! It really is beautiful and I can't take much credit for the beautiful fabrics in it as it was actually a kit but I sure llove the fabrics they chose for it. Especially having two different background fabrics (the dimensional curved pieces and the borders are a white fabric and the rest of the background fabric was a mottled pinkish fabric). Since the directions called for 1 1/2 yards of background, when the kit contained only 3/4 yd of two different fabrics that could qualify as background, I felt some trepidation. But I sure like the effect!.
It's all looking so good! I really like how the Mexican Stars turned out. You SC project is beautiful too, I did the same masking tape quilting method you did. I think an exception can be made for the no buy, you needed it, not wanted it, I think there is a difference. Matante is Ma tante in French and means my aunt. Ma is as it sounds, tant is like ant with a t, the e is silent. I seem to keep correcting pronunciation but it's only because I know the words and I get excited being able to help. I too am snowed in for Connecticut (6 inches), my Canadian family is laughing at me though.
@@fredmakesthings I'm constantly mispronouncing words. Drives my adult children crazy but I consider that a plus! We are getting COLD weather. I think -6 Fahrenheit tonight with a chilly wind. We have the wood stove and are toasty inside. I got the new iron in the mail today (I was surprised since there is no regular mail delivery today) and it is HEAVY! I think it could press well with just the weight of the iron! LOL.
The Mexican Star looks so good - thats lovely quilting! Love the bag too.
@@threadmybobbin Thank you so much!
What a great idea to make the table topper that way! I also made the Renee's Retreat bag but only added one pull, I missed that they have a video. Your quilting is beautiful.
@@ConnieKresinCampbell Thank you so much! I've always been intimidated by just regular dress zippers so putting these zippers in while the coils are separated AND then attaching the zipper pulls after sewing in the zipper coils has been mind boggling to me. However, I'm trying to learn new skills and I'm actually enjoying learning about these different zippers. I never knew zippers had numbers either. The one in this kit is a #5 zipper. I was looking through some zipper tape I inherited and some of it is #3 zipper tape which then requires a different zipper tab. I never knew this!
Thankyou for mentioning me!
@@dixiequilters Thank you for pointing me in the direction of Coriander Quilts!
very nice quilting
hi. liz
Very nice.
@@BettyCorke Thank you!
Pretty finishes.
@@BeckyMortonWeeks thank you!
I failed in my no buy. I’m trying for the rest of this month and next month hopefully.
@@BeckyMortonWeeks You just had a little bump in the road! LOL. Continue on! I'm staying off the 'Live' You Tube sales. It's just too much torture and I might be too weak to resist. Not opening some of my emails because....I might be too weak! But I AM making a list of things that sound like they could be really helpful.
Liz, for some reason, I was dropped from your subscribers. I've re subscribed Liz, hygiene should not hurt like that, especially if your hygienist is well trained in : anesthesia, technical skills etc. . Did the hygienist do any instruction or warning that she was doing heavy duty scaling or something? Consider asking more questions of your dental providers, is there more than one choice of hygienist at the practice you go to? Who has the "softest touch"? these are legit questions. Let me know if I can advise. take care
@@dixiequilters This particular hygienist has a rough touch apparently. She's been doing it a long time and is probably in her mid-50's. My husband said he had her three times and it was the same painful experience each time. He switched to another hygienist. I called Wednesday and got my next appointment in July switched to another hygienist who is wonderfully gentle. Boy, I was sore for three days after and the headache the day of the appointment was terrible. I didn't give the Open Gate Subscription Box opening the attention it deserved but my brain was not working.
I too enjoy time at the beach. When I was in France we would drive to the coast every chance we had. It was only 45 minutes and we would be able to relax, swim if it was warm enough and then go and have a bite to eat. We were very spoiled, with how empty it was. Now, we are still about 45 minutes from a beach but it just doesn't feel the same. There are fewer beaches available and are usually packed with people and the wind can be so cold in the winter. Every now and then we try though. It can be such a relaxing time. The projects look pretty cool. I love how soft the colour pallette is in your main project. The purples are so pretty.
@@fredmakesthings I just love the sound of waves. We are about 30 minutes from the beach but I found that I hadn't been to it in over 10 years. So starting last year, I set myself a goal to get to the beach and walk once a quarter. It's been wonderful and now I've apparently 'checked that box' for the first quarter of 2025.
G'day Liz! Loved seeing all the different projects you showed us. The bobbins quilt behgind you is fun. Love your shirt. I have one of those too.
@@TheGuyWhoSews Thanks! The bobbins quilt was from one of the Open Gate Subscription boxes and I'm surprised at how much it appealed to me, being black, creams and grays. (I'm a purple person.). The one black fabric that Monique Jacobs (of Open Gate) chose for it made spirals when it was sewn together. I felt like I got a wonderful additional surprise after I pieced it! I like this long sleeved 'blood-letting' shirt from the American Red Cross...very comfy. I'll be heading over to a blood drive on Thursday to give some more blood this week. Also gives me a good excuse afterward to 'rest' in my sewing room. LOL.
The Mexican Stars quilt is beautiful.
@@normatulloch376 Thank you! I did stippling on it this afternoon and boy - oh - boy....I'm liking this wall hanging!
That mexican stars is going to look so good! 🤩Many years ago I made a cathedral window cushion and while I'l love to do a quilt, I'm not sure I'd have the patience stick it out to the end.
@@threadmybobbin I hear ya. Folding those curves back and starting and stopping for each piece required me to be in a meditative, calm state of mind. LOL.
I love the project sheet
@@dixiequilters I started detailing the projects a year ago and using the project sheet definitely helps me to know where I am in the process in case I have to put it aside for awhile. Plus it has helped when I needed to reuse the measurements and information for another similar project. As I'm using it, I'm figuring out what I actually want on it. Once I've used up the ones I've got now, I'll probably make a template on my computer for a blank form to print out.
I mentioned you in my post today!!.
@@dixiequilters Thank you so much!
Do you have time to do a free BOM with me? It starts Saturday next. I'm going to use stash, NO BUY JAN!! IT 'S the Cory Yoder BOM . Let me know.
@@dixiequilters Yup. You talked me into it! I'm using my stash. Should be fun!
i like the added texture in the Mexican Stars quilt, It looks pretty cool. I really like the colour story. I just finished watching the SC instructional video and it looks to be a straight forward project, so that is also exciting to me. I'm curious to see how yours turns out.
@@fredmakesthings I'm hoping to have the Sewers Club project done by my next update. However, I'm working on the Kim Diehl Mystery project right now and I think there is a mistake, so that's putting a wrench in my timeline and slowing me down. LOL. I've got to find the instructions on Kim's site and see what if she has a correction or something.
I just opened mine and am so excited! I think I'm dropping everything and probably making it this week. It just looks so nice.
@@fredmakesthings It's itch that I'm wanting to scratch! The fabric is sitting right next to me, calling me!
I finished mine yesterday. It was a great project. I did use a thin fusible fleece in the handle for some sturdiness. The extra notion was so cute as it matched the zipper pulls. Such a fun box.
@@JKerr-mw3yn That's a very good tip about the added fusible fleece for the handle. Thank you! Sometimes it nice not being the first one to make these projects so you can get some good tips from others first!
I'm working on this project now and I just made the handle and followed your advice to use a fusible fleece for the handle for sturdiness and I'm definitely going to like that. It already feels good and I haven't attached it yet!
@@lizwarnke4689 I think you’ll be glad you did. I like how it stands up to grab.
Hi Liz, are you following the BOM with coriander quilt? also do you follow "sew blessed by jess". both are great
@@dixiequilters I do follow 'sew blessed by jess'. I follow coriander quilt but I haven't checked out the BOM. Is it a free one?
@@dixiequilters You got me intrigued to check out the BOM with coriander quilt. I JUST started following her so I hadn't seen the information on it. I think I will do this and use my scraps! Thanks for the heads up about it!
Hey Liz, wow sewers club. you're doing great. all I've got coming is reproduction fabrics from Fat /quarter, and I'm starting the PMQ with fat quarter. I have started a box which doesn't even start until July. HA HA , I'm enjoying what you're doing

Good Idea! Thank you!
Volume is way to low. Cant hear you at all
@@DeniseFiegel sorry
@@DeniseFiegel Sorry about that. Just recording this with my ipad and I don't have any special microphones or equipment.
Minki Kim is great! I used her bowl cozy pattern to make my first cozies. I've been looking at her stuff and been thinking of making more of her patterns. I've been curious about her panels, so I'm excited to see how yours turns out. Sewers Club has a very similar clamshell bag if you want to follow a different pattern too. I'm also liking your projects and I think it was a good idea swapping the colours, I assume it was a pattern misprint because I can't see the only pop of colour being in the center.
I'm looking forward to trying out the minki Kim panel. I'll probably be putting the finished pouches aside for gifts. So many projects I want to do, so little time!
Hi. I found you through Donnells Stitchery! Looking forward to see your content ❤

My no-buy January lasted 7 days, saw some fat quarters I couldn't resist. Nice finish with the parrot quilt!

Very nice finishes.
Thank you so much!
Your Christmas projects all look great but your parrots look fantastic. I love how you did the applique on, it really elevates the quilt. I'm also more excited to see your Mexican Stars project come together, I am super curious about it. I've made a set of mug rugs out of some crumb pieces and finished last years temp quilt top. Now I just need to iron it, trim any excess threads, find or make the backing and bring it to my local long armer. For the tiny pieces, I too collect them and since my house is drafty, I've made door draft stoppers and plan to make more and gift them in my Buy Nothing Group. I baste scrap batting, (I used the scrap from my quilt as you go projects), and ugly fabric i'll never use together and turn them into a tube with one side open. The I stuff it full using the little bits and bobs, then I close the side up when it's full. I then shove that tube into another fabric tube that matches my home decor. I've made one and a half with the pieces from last year. They're dense and weighty enough to stay in place.
@@fredmakesthings What a great idea for the tiny pieces! I'll keep saving them up. I might use them first to make a long cat bed for the shelf that my cats lay on. I have one shelf that I left empty for them above my crafting table and they lounge up there and watch me. However I only have it covered with some towels right now, which they are constantly crumpling up and discombobulating. We can definitely use more door draft stoppers too!
Those Christmas quilts at the start are gorgeous! Appliquéing that parrots out into the border just really brings that quilt to life, love the colours in it.
Thank you so much! Monique at Open Gate Quilts is such a wonderful designer, isn't she? I think I had an additional parrot fussy cut but it flew away! It will probably show up at some point but the quilt will have already left for the recipient.
I've made Mexican Stars twice, as well as other Southwind patterns. The piecing is simple though "odd"-- you incorporate folded triangles into the seams. When the top is complete, the bias folds are turned back to form curves. This is the part where most people get bogged down. It's not hard; just tedious. It's a new experience, and you'll love the finished quilt.
@@sewnancie This is great to know! Thank you so much!
💜The appliqued parrots are awesome and I love your secondary label. 😅💜
@@terrig2298 Thank you! The parrots made it so fun!
Such a great idea and quite the challenge to start out with. The project looks so cool and I love the colours. I am excited to see how this works out for you!
@@fredmakesthings I found a You Tube video showing her fabric folding technique so I'm a bit less scared. LOL.
You are far more organized than I think I will ever be. i have a monthly planner template that I made on my Remarkable and a to do list and that's about it. I do take photos of a lot of stuff I make but I've never thought to swatch or memorialize them.
@@fredmakesthings My daughter, who is a digital guru, saw my lists and notebooks and said they made her head hurt. LOL. Everyone has a different thing that works for them and it changes throughout your life depending on how much time you have and what your other life obligations entail. I like to see what others are doing and then incorporate what I think will work for me.
I didn't sign up with Crazy Moose Fabrics but I like the idea of randomly working on WIP's, so I wrote down all kits I have and will be randomly choosing them throughout the year. I'm excited to see your completed Mexican Stars wall hanging! It's a stunning pattern.
@@catherinekealy5842 The Quilted Forest You Tube channel is also doing a UFO Challenge. She picks a number each month and you work on that one. She posted a video today of her 12 projects and picked number 4 for the January project. You don't sign up or anything. You just number your UFO's and work on the number she picks for that month. I was going to do that one until I got the email from Crazy Moose Fabrics and they are a small quilt shop in my state so I figured I'd do that one instead. Whatever you do, have fun!
oh wow! You are so organised! I just have photos on my laptop of things I've, they aren't even organised well. I did lose a lot of photos on another laptop a few years ago. I do write a to do list each day but with only three things on it and I write a list at the start of the year with what I want to accomplish & refer back to that each month. You have me thinking now...
@@threadmybobbin Thinking is good! LOL. I've been having a lot of fun changing how I track projects and document things. This past year, I've gone back to previous project documentation to get measurements for my son's camp table so I could make him more stuff. The more details and thoughts that I put in there, the more it helps me in the future for making the same kind of project. At least that's what I'm finding. I'm also wishing that I had put more information on some of the projects, so I'm reassessing that aspect. Do what works for you!
Its a really nice pattern and the batiks are lovely colours! I'm looking forward to watching it come together.
@@threadmybobbin Thanks! I'll be really relieved once I've cut it out and can proceed from there.
Thank you Liz. You have some good ideas and I will look forward to seeing your progress with your WIPs. Happy New Year.
