I have been using my scraps all along to make small sewing projects and now I wish I had not. I only had so many scraps and then I had to cut new strips. I am going to save my scraps for a while now. All I have left in my shoe box is 1 1/2 inch and smaller. Don't even know why I am saveing those. I am in no hurry to make a mini quilt. :D But even though I am doing new strips now for everything I am still haveing lots of fun :!: :!: :!:

You can use the smaller strips for scrappy blocks. I sewed these onto used dryer sheets. The rectangle is actual size, the square is one I squared.

Verry pretty Mary :!:

Thank you. I have a box of used dryer sheets, some of which I will square.

Very nice Mary, you seem very organized! I try but it I am a hopeless case! :wink:

Not really, just got tired of looking for where I had my pile going.

Bonnie (from the same site we are working on our mystery quilt) has a tutorial for a crumb quilt. I guess I will keep saving the litte tibbits. Looks nice but will do one differently I think. Here is the page just in case you want to look.
