Patchwork Fun

I'm happy to report I have officially begun preparations to complete my quilt project. To get in the grove of putting together my July quilt I did some small patchwork mini's. I got all my fabrics out and started mixin' and matchin'. I put together a couple good color and texture combos. Here are the results.

I love these, mostly because they are made from both new fabric and pieces of my husband and children's clothes.
I think I'll keep playing around with color combos then get started on my QUILT. However, I'm running out of time, since I had a goal of finishing one quilt by the end of July. (panic...breath..OK) If anything Ill be done by the end of the summer....i think...
First I need to figure out what to do with these....pillows, purses??? Ideas?

I know the intent wasnt a quilt out of those but I think a whole group of those would make an awesome throw size quilt. If it isnt meant for a quilt then I vote pillows!

this is such a great idea for those teeny, tiny scraps! I have been wanting to make a patchwork log cabin quilt for forever and these are just so adorable!
