I guess my hubby was wrong & these will get used, lol!!! He was so funny thinking about cookie crumbs on his coaster~ I reminded him that these do get washed!!! Thanks for all of the replies. I am thinking I may use use of my small orphan blocks next...I could get hooked on making these because I love using up those little bits & pieces. Since I am a hand quilter these will give me a chance to practice my machine quilting. I get the best ideas from all of you ladies sharing here :o)
