At a quilting retreat last summer, a lady was making a quilt with the Spring Meadow line from Moda. She was throwing away all the little triangles she was trimming from her blocks! Yikes, I asked if I could have the ones in her trash can and she said yes. Then she started saving all of them for me. Anyway, last month I sewed all the little triangles, a print triangle with a white triangle. Yesterday I began pressing them and squaring the little block. It measures 1 3/4" per little square. I know.........I am crazy, but I just had to do something with these little things. Today I have been sewing 4 blocks together to make pinwheels that will be a 3" square. I will have 30 of these 3" squares. I think I will put strips around each block and then put them together. It will be the size of a doll quilt and just right for a small spring wallhanging. Will post a pic when the quilt is all together. Not saying when that will be!!!

Back to stitching a few more squares before I turn in for the night.
