Use for donated strip sets
I received a baggie of strip sets -- each piece has a 4 inch, then a 2 inch, and then a 7 inch piece, 2.5 inches wide and 13.5 length. They are all in beautiful blue fabrics and separated by contrast, although not consistently, i.e., not light dark light, or light light dark, etc.
I can't even imagine what the plan was for these. I can't think of a block that they would make. I'm considering trying a jelly roll race with them, but hope some of you might have other suggestions. Thanks!

Try laying them out as a band of bargello, you can sew them into circles and cut through the largest piece in intervals.
Or, when in doubt, it sounds like sashing for a scrap quilt made of similar or contrasting fabrics.
