I then thought of these scraps sitting on my cutting table waiting until I was done sewing my 6 inch and 3 inch squares on to my last strips of the king-size quilt. Hey, I could cut these up now and kill two birds with one stone. I thought it was going to take a loooong time so I set my timer for 15 minutes and started cutting. I cut some strips 2.5, but most was cut into 3 inch squares as I have a lot of those and I thought I'd make some kind of pillow shams for the bed. To go with the quilt.

Fifteen minutes later I had that scrap all cut up. Had a few 6 inch blocks, but mainly had 3 inch squares. Can't believe it only took 15 minutes, I was sure it would take me at LEAST an hour.

Wow!! Maybe I will set my timer tonight to cut some more scraps for Michael's quilt. I need more 6.5 inch blocks. I have a fantasy I will get it done for his birthday. Who knows!!
Way to go. I wanted to whine about it too, but this is one of those things I have been wanting to tackle anyway. So it was a good kick in the pants for me!
I'm so proud of you for ignoring the whiny voice. (I need to do that waaaay more often!)
