SCRAP BIN USE

I reorganized my fabric stash some time ago and put anything less that a fat quarter into bins by color.
Red and pinks
Greens, beige/tan, and white/off white. 
Blues, aquas, and browns
And finally golds, yellows, purple and blacks
The plan is to make a quilt using courtyard steps.  These are my contribution to the red scraps.  
My yellow and gold.
Blues
Greens
And at last the pinks and purples.
Of course the idea is to make a dent in these stuffed to capacity scrap bins.  Well that didn't work at all.  But is was fun seeing what I could come up with.  Now to put them all together and into a quilt top.

  6. What fun! Indeed, trying to use up scraps seems to generate more -- but your idea of using one color family in each simple block is a great one.
