Ooo--lots of things!! All the ones on the right ladder, and some on the middle, are for log cabins. The others are all left over strips from a variety of projects. I will use them in strip quilts eventually. I've made several blocks, and one wall hanging so far. The wall hanging sold. I have pictures if you'd like. The bookmark strips aren't left out because I mostly do them for my students. I have fabric that has all their interests on it--so I save it away until next year. If I make bookmarks to sell, it's usually the flower fabric.

(ahem) now that you're all settled and it's cold, where's buddy's room? :lol: :lol:
No---I don't cut any fabric unless I have a plan. I've never cut a strip that wide--too easy. :lol: Well, unless it's for a border.
Buddy... Mark's love. All Buddy has to do is breathe for Mark to say "good dog!" :lol:

Those are neat pieces of, hmmm, corrugated plastic sort of things I bought from purplemem! I love them!
