Hello, and welcome to my blog.
It's time to do some clean-up of scraps, which in my case means using strips that I have overcut.
I have: one inch strips for a mini log cabin:
1.5 inch strips from two log cabin projects: brown strips and lots of pink strips.
1.5 inch strips leftover from my Pie Birds project.
And cut offs from my prep for the flying geese project.
Since I had strips, I used the light fabrics in this last picture as a center, and added strips around it, log cabin style. Here is a set of about 60 mini-blocks.
Here are the leftover 1 inch strips. I have no qualms about tossing these out.
Next: Add the 1.5 inch strips, log cabin style and build these "crumb" blocks up to at least 6 inches square, or larger. Lots of pink and brown strips will continue the color story.
Stay tuned!

That's a great idea for your strips and squares! Pretty colors, too!
I think you have a lovely Duckworth quilt in the making. I love browns.
Kat you are absolutely right - these are Duckworth blocks.
