I didn’t sew on Scrapitude during the Black Friday sew-in, but I did cut. As you know, my original plan was to cut as needed. I wanted to see what would look good. Really, I wanted to exert some control over the process.<\/p>\n

It was hard to move through the clues without having cut in advance. I don’t like to cut a lot at once, but I buckled down last Saturday and Sunday and spent a few hours cutting.<\/p>\n

I was able to finish cutting the 2 7\/8″ squares, the 2.5″x12.5″ strips (probably for sashing) and the 5.25″ squares. All of the above were from background and most of it I had to cut from yardage, though I did have some small enough pieces for the smaller cuts.<\/p>\n

I also was able to finish cutting 2 7\/8″ squares from foreground fabric. I rummaged again through my scraps to find large enough pieces that were cheerful enough.<\/p>\n

Since I wasn’t limited to the dots on white, like I am for the background, find the right sizes was easier.<\/p>\n

There are some really bright and loud looking pieces, but I think it will work out in the end.<\/p>\n

I did pick and choose so I had a variety of colors. I think I was able to use all scraps for the foreground.<\/p>\n
