Preparing for preemie quilts

I took advantage of my clean cutting table in the basement and cut all of the scraps from the preemie layettes (that we make at church) into squares to make into little quilts for the preemie ward.



I sewed all of the littlest squares into 4 patches to pair with plain squares.









I will get 4 little quilts out of all of that cutting.  I also pieced some backings out of the larger scraps.





This is how I store all of the squares that are left over.  By putting them in separate boxes that are marked with the sizes, I don't have to go back and measure all of them when I cut the next batch to add to them.
