take a rotary cutter, slice them up, take a piece of water solvable stabilizer, spray with some basting spray, spread your scrapes pretty evenly over it. cover with some tulle (black is wonderful) put another piece of solvable stabilizer over it and stipple. you now have some wonderful fabric.

My quilting buddy saves all of these to make dog pillows. Keep cutting, keep saving.

I saw a lady who used all of those for texture on landscape quilts for the trees and grass. There was some kind of powder she sprinkled on to make them stick.

I would either call the school, or see if anyone nearby makes the dog beds for the Humane society... usually not much more than a "pillow case" filled with scraps to give the animals a place to lay that isn't a concrete floor

Wow Krystyna, that's beautiful work, however, question. It doesn't seem that any are actually quilted? Am I wrong?

I give my scraps to a school for art work!

I took a class that uses small pieces to make new fabric...they place them on pellon/iron/then sew - they can be used pillows/bags - what a cool idea!

Question: how about the lint from clothes dryer....is that good for birds to use in their nests? Just wondering

You could make long door draft stoppers for yourself or as Christmas presents. They are really cute as cats or mouse etc. This board is So green and thrifty! Recycle it all!

I just saw this idea...making cat and dog beds with old sweaters and scraps for the filling. http://www.elizabethskitchendiary.co...r-cat-bed.html
