I really like this... what size did you cut your strips... I want to do a obw in miniature. How much fabric did you start with??

I have to say, I don't think the original is ugly, but certainly wouldn't know what to do with it. Your quilt is lovely.

whoa! I love your runner. It is certainly beautiful. Very interesting blocks and placement. Nice work with your "ugly" fabric!

Nice!! That's really creative..
Recently I found about 32 spool of Nettler? 150m threads with 4 hoops and a bag of cross stitch threads for $1.59
From a pound (goodwill) store. I know how you felt finding a good deal and being able to upset!!
Again that's very nice!
