I was given a boatload of fabric and among all the bits and pieces of precut squares there were a bunch of squares that had been sewn together, some with one end open (I assume for turning) and some not. I have no idea what the thought process was with these.

I was considering ripping the seams and recycling the fabric but had an "aha!" moment while cutting fabric for a binding this morning. I'm just going to cut the seams off those puppies. They'll still be squares, just slightly smaller. Best of all, it will take a fraction of the time ripping would.

This is usually the kind of thing that wakes me up at 3 a.m. and keeps me from falling back to sleep. At least this time it happened mid-morning!

great plan

Much easier then ripping and you can cut them nice and square for easy use, WIN!

It's your fabric now. You can do what you want with it.

That's a wonderful idea.

Good plan. I wonder if someone had thought they were going to make a biscuit quilt?

I agree that it's a great idea!

Jingle

I have done that before.

Aha...what a great idea.

Very efficient idea. You have a treasure trove for quick use. Being organized in how you store it is the key.
