I use them in scrap quilts. Recently I sewed several strips together and then cut them 2 1/2”. I had a good start for a scrap quilt of 2 1/2” squares. I also make strip quilts for donation. I always use the left over 2 1/2” pieces...so many ways. I even make my own “jelly rolls” of like colors. When I finish a quilt and have just a small amount of fabric left I cut it into 2 1/2 “ strips. These strips are my very favorite place to go for fun sewing.
