I took a roll of adding machine tape and sewed scraps on it.

Then I sewed them together to make a top:

Then I washed it because I didn't know the best way to get rid of the paper before actually doing the quilt--
and I did get my machine cleaned out without calling the repairman.

but this is how it turned out after I washed it. The idea of taking off the paper off those tiny little pieces was more than I can bear. I don't sit and watch tv in the evenings as a general rule, so that isn't an option to me.

So next time I will try to go ahead and just finish it, including quilting it and THEN washing it...because these are so tiny that I can't see that they will be a problem. At least I think I'll try it.
