Thanks for sharing.

I'm also more biased in favor of yardage, but I've used FQs for making luggage tags (it's been awhile, but I think I got 2 out of each FQ) and I've just collected a bunch in my sewing room's new colors to make sampler wall hangings.

I'm very ashamed reading about the FQ's. My LQS puts them on sale quite often for $1.75 or $1.50 and I buy but have never cut into one. I would rather by yardage but don't like cutting into that either. I think I am becoming a fabric horder. I have alot of jeans and have many already cut in squares. After reading all your great ideas I'm going to get them out and make my son a jeans quilt for Christmas. I think he would love it.
