When life gives you scraps ... make quilts!

All those pieces you have leftover will make lots more new quilts.
Small strips are great for 4Ps, 9Ps, log cabins, piano key borders, etc.

For inspiration take a look at the many Scrappy Quilts here ...

The blocks that didn't make it, and became orphans, can go together for a sampler type of quilt.
They don't have to be set in an orderly fashion, or all in the same colour coordinated fabric, but can go all helter skelter in a more modern sampler style.
Here's one for an idea for you ...
