    an older quilt that really can not be saved any more. It is used to cut up and make dolls, stuffed animals, jackets, totes, etc ...good to the last square we always say!

    I've seen some really adorable teddy bears made from cutter quilts. Also, if larger pieces can be saved there are folks that have redone furniture with cutter quilts. I hope my quilts are loved and used so much they become "cutters"!

    I made stuffed Teddy Bears for my neices one year from an cutter. I was able to save enough from one to make runners for dressers in extra bedrooms. I've seen purses and placemats.
