If you don't want them I'll pay the postage for you to send them to me. I make all kinds of quilts out of scraps. Just let me know.

I sew them into strips then cut into 6 x 6's and put a 2" border around them and quilt . Makes full quilts, throws , lapquilts etc. Easy .

OH Gosh, I sure hope I wasn't one of the ones that forgot to reply and give thanks. I am always so incredibly thankful for the generosity of everyone here on the board, whether I am the receipient or someone else. But I must confess that I do sometimes forget things. Define sometimes as daily. Between the fibrofog and the meds I take, my best intentions often go astray. It in no way means I don't appreciate the effort and kindness behind the squishy. I always appreciate a gentle reminder that someone hasn't heard from me. Something like a good swift kick in the behind would work.
I have often read here where someone says it is only simple common courtesy to send a thankyou and to let the sender know that the package has arrived and why should the sender have to prompt to get that which is due. And although I do agree and understand the concept in a perfect world, most of us don't live in a perfect world. And many of us, like me, do have our eggs all in one basket, we just can't find where we put the dang basket.
I do make lists and try hard to be organized so I don't forget things, but then along comes a bad day or week and things get put in places never to be seen again, or come across weeks or months later. I mean who looks in the freezer for their to do list?
So I guess what I'm saying is, rather than assume someone does not appreciate your efforts, give them the benefit of the doubt and take your kindness a step further and sent a PM asking if the package was received. We will love you even more for understanding our frailties. Hugsssss and smilesss.....

I keep all my scraps, when a new quilt store opened up here, she had them for 2.00 a pound. I spent 4 wks going thru bins and buying her scraps.

I love Bonnie Hunters Quilts, and her system, as in an earlier post mentioned her sight. With economy like it is, there are lots of people that will use up these scraps also. Start in your area, you don't have to go far, to find a home for them.

Wow! This new board never gave me a notify that you all were responding to me! ACK. I'm sorry I missed all the great input. Finally today I thought it was odd that no one responded... so I decided to go hunt it down... and sure enough here you all are!

I'm getting a few PMs offering to take them off my hand. I think I'm great with offers, thanks everyone!

Love all the wonderful ideas. Of course you're right, I don't want to toss all of the beautiful fabric. But I don't want to keep them either! I sorted them and pulled the strips because I loooove log cabins. But everything else will have to be re-homed. :-)
