Nine Patch Square Dance, Popsicles Sticks, Elate and Leftovers

 Remember my Goal to reduce the Piles around my sewing area? That led me to finish the start of the Nine Patch Square Dance...

I had a whole pile of fabrics pulled for it, but as I started in - I realized I didn't want to use all of them. I liked sticking with a limited color palette.

and now that top is finished:  



I also realized I didn't want to put the fabrics away, as I might never see them again - things do go missing in my fabric storage system.... so!!

I started cutting Strips.  remember the Popsicles Sticks Pattern from Atkinson's design?  I love it so:

I might have cut enough strips for it...... 



But wait!!! While I was late night scrolling I found the Elate Pattern from Carolyn Friedlander... and so I thought.. I should cut a few strips for it. I was planning on mixing them with some other strips - but!!

After I finished Popsicle Sticks - I sat down to count what I had for the Elate Quilt - and I had EXACTLY enough to make a baby quilt....



This just needs to be rowed now....

but wait!!

I saved all the leftover Bits and Bobs: 


its quite a pile - I am hoping I have time to put together something Scrappy with all these yummy leftovers before I need to Start my next Memory Client Quilt....


Who Knows what these will become???

and who knew there were that many quilt tops in the pile of fabric!!
