From Scraps to iPhone Case!

I have a lime green scrap bin that holds fabric pieces. It keeps staring at me every week saying, "Sort me, sort me, SORT ME!" Despite the constant pestering, I shove it back onto the shelf and keep sewing, accumulating more and more fabric scraps.

So, I decided to sort out everything in the bin this weekend. I began by organizing it into two piles: keep and too small to keep.

Just as I was about to throw away the "too small to keep" pile, I remembered that I really wanted to make an iPhone Case to keep my new phone from scratching.

So, here it is...

And here is a photo of the back:

I love these scrappy projects because each little piece tells a story about something I've created! What a great "memory case" to hold a device I use daily!

Neapolitan Bunnies

Once springtime rolled around this year, I thought I would bring back the bunny! A few years ago, I made these young rabbit plushies for some dear friends. It is always entertaining digging up old photos. Although I must say that searching through my folders on a hard drive doesn't do it for me like rummaging through an old box of printed photos!

   

 I had some of the Love My Honey fabric collection by Jenni Calo left over from this baby quilt, so I thought I would do something a little different this year. What follows are some photos of the  "Neapolitan Bunnies!"

Personally, I'm still partial to the original pink bunny, although I love them all of different reasons. Which one is your favorite?!
