Somebody Else's Scraps

We've all done it.  No matter how wonderful our own fabric is, we love looking at what everyone else has.  I've started a new idea today, using my play scraps.

Someone gave another load to Lizzie and she gave me a big bag that I dumped right on top of my scrap laundry basket.

I fiddled around and kind of came up with a color scheme of sorts.  Red will be my accent or "treat" fabric as Victoria Findlay Wolfe calls it.  I cut a bunch of strips.

Then I started sewing strip sets.  Some strips were too wide so I trimmed. Nothing is over 1".

I'm trimming to 3 1/2" square.  The picture of  my INSPIRATION is apparently stored on the other computer, so I'll have to amend this.  The inspiration was something I saw at the Met in April.......
