Block 9 and Then Some - Dumpster Diving 2.0

This was the beginning of block number 9

for Dumpster Diving 2.0.

(If you've missed the earlier posts for this one,

click HERE, HERE, and HERE to get caught up)

This is the finished block.

Now there are NINE blocks on the wall!

But what to do with all of the leftover 

1.5" scrap segments that weren't used

in those nine blocks?

I started by randomly sewing them together end-to-end.

Well - mostly in a random manner.

I did make sure there was good contrast 

between one piece and the next.

Then I pressed each color group's long 

multi-fabric scrappy strip.

It didn't take terribly long before this happened:

Twenty-nine 80" lengths pinned on the design wall.

By the time I finish the final three blocks

and add their leftover segments to this mix,

I'll have the makings for roughly two yards

of glorious deliriously-happy-scrappy fabric!
