Stashbuster

Although I have not purchased fabric in a long time (unless it was for a specific project for which I did not have suitable fabric in my stash), I still managed to accumulate a fair amount of stuff, either leftovers from previous projects or things received from others.  

I am reaching a landmark birthday and have decided to declutter by making new art.  Smaller pieces since I have difficulty and am no longer able to make larger quilts.

My first  project is turning this bin of batting cut offs

into these 

Unfortunately, I did not mark at the time what kind or brand of batting I used so I could not sew them together to reuse in quilts (since different battings shrink at different rates).

I am making 10 1/2" squares which I will use for these (planning on 75 small art pieces)

to be made from these 
leftover ties.  And I have another two bags of ties which I haven't gutted yet.

Needless to say, I will have enough to keep me occupied this year.  I will hopefully post as I go along.
