Great idea! I started to use my scraps for the last few quilts and rugs...I can't believe how much I have. I haven't even touched my fat qtrs yet this year. I also have given away lots of scraps. It seems never ending.

I just feel its ridiculous to have so much fabric sitting there, unused. And don't even get me started on my scrap bins. I have a quilting Facebook page that I posted some quilts on yesterday, and when one cousin loved one of them, I thought, ok, she gets that one! And when I give her that one, that means I will also give each of her sisters a quilt too. So I'll be "forced" to stick with my plan.
