I would not cut the fabric up into strips. This may prevent their use later. Maybe a crazy quilt would work.

My mother always said to buy the ugliest piece of fabric, and it would makeup the prettiest dress.

Here's an ugly fabric K size quilt with flannel back. Also made 2 sofa throws & a couple table runners.

Kids love flannel back quilts,flannel anything!
