Way to go, Kalamaquilts!
I rescued some strips from the fabric recycling bag where I volunteer and spent some time cutting them today with my die cutter. Most of them are 1.5" widths because they are the cut off pieces around the baby quilts.
I also cut some fabric that I think are batiks that I have had probably for 5 years or more and they were donated to my church group. I'm just cutting most of them into 2.5" strips because of their designs. Many of them had huge flower designs and then lines that appear to be borders. I'm thinking the fabric was probably for skirts or dresses because of those lines. They were in an overflowing copy paper box. Lol! I will probably use them in strip blocks with some plain or tone-on-tone fabric.
