Have you made anything "scrappy" other than quilts?

I am suddenly taken with the scrappy bug. I am sitting at my sewing machine with tons of scraps around me happily ironing, sewing and cutting. I would like to make aprons, should I line them so the seams don't fray after the many washings aprons need?
Has anyone made placemats or anything else?

I made a tree skirt for my DD, but didn't take a pic of it!
Also a table cloth, placemats and napkins for my "mommy" ! She's really a dear friend that doesn't have any children of her own and has kind of adopted me as her "daughter"!!

I'm glad you like it. I made it up as I went along filling up the space needed for each sleeve, the front sides and back.
I needed to make the blocks no bigger than 4" and some are just filler pieces. I just knew I wanted to include some seminole piecing, assorted star blocks and easy piecing. No paper piecing involved.
