I make strip quilts. I cut pieces of muslin in 1.5" squares and sew the strips diagonally across the muslin. After I trim the edges, the blocks are ready to sew together.

Lay the first piece face up, corner to corner. Lay the next piece right side together with the first piece, sew the edge, flip open and press. Continue until all the muslin is covered.

I keep a container of them, and use them to bind scrappy quilts, they look great!

I do this also. But I make my own binding in2 inch wide strips. If I don't use the for scrappy quilt binding, I can press it out and use it in another quilt.

Make a scrappy log cabin quilt. I am working on one now, it has a lot of left over binding strips.

I cut them into whatever size squares I can get from them and add them to my scrappy stash boxes.

I'm quite pleased with my use of selvedge strips -- they go into a gardening basket and are used to tie up plants. I figure by the time they rot through the plant shouldn't need support any more, and they certainly add a bit more colour to the garden.

I've often wondered the same thing and I'm sure we will get a lot of suggestions...this Board will never let you down!
