This group of quilt seedlings are primarily blues.
Quilt Seedlings are pieces of fabric that have Wonder Under on the back of them.
When I have small scraps of fabrics left I put a lot of them on a sheet of Wonder Under and that is one way I get seedlings.
I save the rest of the piece when I cut something from a piece of fabric. If I cut out a shape and don't use it, it also becomes a seedling for a future piece.
Having these small seedlings takes away the fear of cutting into a large precious piece of fabric.
I also get ideas to use those large precious pieces as I am making these smaller works of art.
These can also be used on larger works by combining them or adding them as details.

I love the idea of 'quilt seedlings'......perfect description of your process!
Don't you just Love Wonder Under!! I do similar, but I usually start by putting the WU on the back of up to half yard pieces at a time and keep the little leftover bits sorted by color for smaller projects.... Such fun!
