My strip scrap bin is filling up again and I know I will be making one of these soon. I have three other projects to finish yet. I love how your scrappy turned out! Very pretty. I make mine the same way. This is the last one I made.

strip scrappy. Including borders.

Very pretty. It is amazing what you can do with scraps and how when put together they all seem to work!

How wide do you cut your strips? I know they are not all the same width, but what range of width are they?

They are all different sizes. A lot of the greens were left over from a log cabin block, but most of the rest were just scaps; some not even cut straight. One inch is the smallest strip I save; rest go into trash.
