Sooo many t-shirt scraps!
 

I have a bin full of the leftovers of t-shirts after having cut out the logos for t-shirt quilts. There are neck ribbings, sleeves, backs, and front bottoms. The only things I've done so far is make wipes for our eyeglasses and dusting cloths. But the bin is FULL! Any ideas of what I can do with this nice fabric. TIA for your input.

Stuffing for dog bedding!

I agree with alikat110, sew it up in an old pillowcase or blanket and donate it.

or you could make quilt blocks and donate the quilt to an autistic child they love the weight of a heavy quilt. That is what I did with the scraps from my T-shirt quilt.

i send them to the farm or friends garage for rags.....

cut into strips and crochet rugs with a jumbo hook.

Make small knit hats and mittens for local hospitals for children and preemies. You can find patterns on line

I plan to donate my left over t-shirt scraps the county dog shelter. I think they have someone there that makes dog pull toys that they share with the residents and sell at adoption events.

I donate t-shirt scraps for animal beds! Place the scraps in a 'pillowcase' type bag BUT stitch sections off so that the t-shirt fabric is separated. That way all of the heavy fabric won't go together into one 'glob' in the washer and dryer.

Make your case, stitch down the center perpendicular to the opening, add some scraps, stitch horizontally to opening, add some scraps, stitch horizontally, etc. EASY!

Don't make them too heavy that it takes too long to dry.

Pack the christmas decorations with it.

I saw this recently on FB

Hula hoop rug made from t-shirt scraps http://spoonful.com/crafts/hula-hoop-rug

use some of the ribbing for making flowers and embellishment - roll up from one end, stitching together at the base as you go - makes "roses"..wide ribbing as on sweatshirt/t-shirt sleeves can be scalloped to make larger flowers.

The strips make great ties for plants, especially tomato plants, not abrasive and have some give to them. I also use them on fruit vines. I make strips and crochet them into hot pads in the kitchen.

There is a pattern on utube for making scarfs , maybe .

I used the narrow hems to make name labels for my DH socks. I used the alphabet on my Janome machine.

then sew the labels on by hand . They stretch just enough to pull the sock on easily. The colored thread does not fade like markers when the nursing home washes in very hot water.

Cut the remnants into cotton yarn. Googling will give you lots of tutorials. I have been making potholders on the little child's loom since second grade and still like these woven ones best of all. Cotton loops have been getting hard to find and horribly expensive. I make loopers for the loom by cutting rings from orphan socks and tee shirt sleeves. I have also used the continuous tee shirt yarn on the loom instead of the loopers.

Many kinds of remnants can be made into rag rugs via crochet, needle weaving, hooking, sewing scraps to a solid backing or braiding. Works best to limit each project to one type of material. The web is full of up cycle tutes and ideas.

My son never remembers to pack bibs in the diaper bag, so I left the neck ribbing intact and cut the back unused part of the shirt at the top into a good shape and size for a bib. They don't look great because I didn't spend any time on them, but I have great semi-disposable bibs that slip over the head.
