I made one of those and of course couldn't throw out the triangles you cut off each end. Here is what I made with them. The rectangle was what was left so I made it into a small runner for an end table. Used up just about every scrap of fabric. Just bought a beautiful black and red Christmas stripe to make another.
Same fabrics as above, the coloring is off on this one. I like the bottom runner better.
