This selection of patterns is the answer for you, no matter your skill level. These easy quilt patterns will ensure that no scrap goes to waste!
Sometimes I feel like I live in a scrap-filled cycle.
Your stash is organized and intentional. Then, a notification pings from your favorite fabric group on Facebook, or you come across a too-good-to-miss destash on eBay.
Then, with a small cut here and a little snip there, suddenly you have fabric scraps, fat quarters, a heap of new fabric to use, and scraps busting from your scrap bins! We’ve all been there.
Today, I am here to bring new hope to your leftover fabrics. Here are some of my favorite scrap quilt project patterns that will breathe new life into those bits of extra fabric.
With one of these easy scrap quilt patterns, you can turn your scrapped fabric into a beautiful quilt that was truly made with love!
Whatever the size and amount of scraps you have, you should be able to make a whole quilt – you’ll be surprised!
