I would cut calico prints of same length/width, then make scrappy
quilts. Just sew (sew and flip) all those narrow strips, small blocks on the narrow
strip until you have 90" (or less length covered). If you use Walking Foot
you will have a nice stitching on the calico print backing.... then just
finish off with sashing strips (as explained in Lap Quilting). You would be
able to make something as small as a potholder, a table runner, a baby
quilt or if you are ambitious, a BIG project.
You are doing "stash reduction" and "quilt completion" in one step.
