Scrap-a-palooza day 10 and progress on the DNP

So I dived into that box of scraps and after two hours this is what I came up with. Here are the typical pieces; most of the 4.5" x 16.5" pieces were already cut.

Then there was this stack of blocks made with 3" strips, some 3" strips in both prints and whites.

I will use those blocks to make either zig zag quilts or

what I call step zig zag. This is a large step zig zag I made several years ago.

Then there were these parts. I have no idea why I have these HST pieces. I don't remember sewing them or ever using any in a quilt. The rest of the pieces I will sew together into blocks.

There is a bunch of these pieces about 1 1/2" x 3". They were the corners cut when making boxy pouches. I am not going to spend the time cutting them into postage stamp pieces right now.

So here is what the box looks like now.

I made some great progress on the DNP top. I am going to try and get the top done this weekend. That would give me 18 days to get it quilted for Xmas.
