this is the quilt i made with some of my scraps. i posted it a long time ago. none of my scraps go to waste. whatever is too small, goes to a lady who makes dog beds for the Humane Society. I have a bag taped to my cutting table and when I square the edges, each sliver goes into the bag. when it is full, I tie it up, throw it in the corner and take it to the next months meeting. I am amazed how fast the bags fill. At $11-12 a yard, I don't feel I can just throw them in the landfill when there is a use for them. I love scrappy quilts. i have started a miniature quilt using one inch wide strips for 4 patches. i also have been saving strips of all sizes for a strippy quilt. i wish i understood why i love scraps so mucm. Some of the blocks below looked like vomit by themselves...but sewed together, i love them.
