The fabric trimmings are used for the strings. Anyone with a spare half hour or so at the end of the day will dip in the box and make a block or two. When there is a pile of blocks someone will take them home to add the 1" sashing to make a Linus quilt.
It is surprising how many quilts can be made from 'waste' and a little spare time.
