I got this in a bag of fabric from Goodwill. I have one more strip like the top row. What can I use them for? Thanks in advance for any help.

Great find! Are they embroidered? I would make a bed runner if they are small.

use them as the center of blocks, like a larger, rectangle log cabin, or a star block or simply sash and make into a quilt

Attic window came to mind when I saw your little bird panels.

Fussy cut the squares for a quilt like Warm Wishes pattern? You could make nice holiday potholders for gifts. A holiday tablerunner and placemats would be nice.

Since I enjoy log cabin, I would make these the center of a log cabin layout.

Those are lovely! I am not sure what I would do; but being the centerpiece of a block is my first thought. I hope you share when you do decide and create this future beauty.
