My thrift store fabrics I found, I have been cutting into 2.5 inch strips. So far I have 298 2.5 x 44 inch strips. I still have 5 different fabrics to do yet. I had to take a break. I plan on using these all for scrappy quilts. If I can find and decide on a pattern. I am horrible at picking colors to match.

The red quilt is a pattern by pieced tree called jelly jive. The brown quilt I just used up fabric from another quilt no pattern.

My grandson's deployment quilt was all 2 1/2" scraps except the white sashing and the red border. If you skip the stars in the cornerstones, it would be easy.
