Scrap-a-palooza day 28, a scrap correction, and DNP status

I carved a bit of time out today to start cutting the black and gray bin scraps. Here is what I have so far. Elle asked the question about the sizes I am cutting. Elle, you are a no-reply blogger so I will answer you here. The 3.5", 2.5", and 2" squares can be used in a lot of different designs. The 3" wide strips I will pair with a solid color to make zig zag quilts. The 4.5" x 16.5" will be for chevron quilts, and the string pieces will be for string blocks.

When I went upstairs last evening to unplug the ceramic tree I realized that I forgot about the bin of scraps I used to prop up the tree. So, I am down to three bins to cut up, including the black and gray bin, and that bag I showed yesterday. I feel I have put a pretty good dent in getting the scraps under control even with finding that third bin.  

I now have only 17 inches of the binding to sew on the DNP quilt! Tomorrow after I get that little bit done I will slap on a label, wash it, and stick a fork in it because it will be done!
