What do you do with all those scraps, odds and ends, small, leftover pieces from various projects...?
This is what you do!
This is what you do!
This idea came from
"Quilt Your Stash" by Joan Ford
This is what I have to contend with...
Ahhh....so much nicer!
Thank you, Joan Ford!

A great post about scrap busting HERE.
Now, what will I make with all these pre-cuts?
Joan has ten projects from a carry-all to a pillow to quilts to keep me busy!
Now, if AccuQuilt will join forces with Joan Ford to create a
2" square, 3.5" square and 5" square die set, it'd be sheer heaven! Please join me in an e-mail campaign for this request!
Dear AccuQuilt,
Please create a stash busting die set like those featured on http://www.accuquilt.com/go-shop/die-sets.html that includes 2", 3.5" and 5" squares so we can make even more projects from our stash. We love Joan Ford's Scrap Therapy program, but would like an AccuQuilt die set to make it even easier to bust our stash!
You have the 2" strip for the Go! cutter
and the # 55022 2" squares for the Go! cutter
and the 3.5" square for Go! cutter
and die 55010 is available for 5" charm squares
We love the 12" finished block set http://www.accuquilt.com/go-mix-and-match-die-set.html?p=2, so why not create a stash busting die set?
Another option would be to create one die with one of each like the die that comes with the Go! cutter when you first purchase it.
Thank you! Sincerely, (your name here)

Mary Ann, they do have a 5 inch square die for the Go! Already, but it would be great to have them all on the same die, if that is what you are suggesting. :-)
ReplyDeleteCecilia: Thank you for your response to my “Join me in an e-mail campaign” request. I looked all over the AccuQuilt site for a 5” square, but couldn’t locate it. Do you happen to know the number for that product because I’ll be happy to add it.
ReplyDeleteIt would be fantastic to have them all on the same die or packaged together to sell like the 12” block dies. Instead of the expensive $78 2” strip, it’d be awesome to have a stack of 2” squares together on one die, too.
P.S. I did find the 5" die number for the Go! cutter...it is 55010. Thank you, Cecilia!
ReplyDeleteI love Scrap Therapy - I've made about 8 or 9 of her patterns and she pays such close attention to pressing and details. Love these patterns.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the same kind of box that I have been using to store my scraps in for years - now I'm actually trying to get them all cut into certain sizes.
ReplyDeleteI don't have an accuquilt cutter, I'm just doing it with a rotary cutter and ruler.
