The girls in my avitar are my twins. They are 17, and starting their sr. in high school this week.

Yes, quilt jelly!
I used to save all my bunny ears until a few years ago. I used my empty coffee jars so that they all had the same jar and decorated my empty space on the shelves. There is no empty space anymore, so no more jars. I liked looking at the contents and remembering which quilt supplied which ears!

I saw a demo (somewhere) where the person made a block and sprinkled the little corners all over the fabric, covered it with tulle netting (or mesh, whatever you call it) and crazy stitched all over it and made a finished block that was really colorful. I was working with silvery material and I thought that I would try it - but, then I lost all the little scraps - don't ask me how - the gremlins got them.
