Thumbs up Great Site!

I have been slaying my scraps this year and I am very glad I have . When you have strips and blocks on hand, you are ready when an event comes up. My guild is having a JellyRoll race at our next meeting and I had enough 2 1/2" strips already cut. We meet a couple times a month to work at the local extension office. There we have several large tables where we can spread our projects out. If the weather was bad or I could only be there part of the day, I would take fabric scraps and cutting tools and spend my time reducing them to strips and blocks rather than taking my machine. This gives me a time when I can socialize with other quilters. And, I'll get a nice quilt to wrap up in in front ot he TV this winter. It's what people call a win-win.
