    Default Stripping again

    not what you think,lol. I was bored and my grand daughter said to take 1 yd each of 100 prints and cut strips-so I did.the 5 inch strips have now been cut into charms and many quilt tops are ready to start on including my favorite-log cabins.I prefer making scrappy quilts so this will work.

    That's a lot of cutting, but nice that you are ready to start piecing whenever you feel like it!

    Am I reading this right...........you stripped 100 yards of fabric? Man! you must have a stash if this is true. Out of curiosity .... how long did it take to accomplish this task? Have fun! Oh the possibilities now! Adios boredom.

    Oh. My. Goodness. You're a terrific stripper (seriously, I've never said THOSE words before!). Now you have a whole world of creativity just waiting to get started. Have fun, and I can't wait to see finished products.

    let me know if you want to get rid of those so you have space to do it all again. LOL

    i keep telling myself i should do that with a lot of my own stash.
    now that there's "hard evidence" a person can survive such an undertaking i have one less excuse to not do it.

    gee ... thanks. LOL

    seriously, though ... very impressive!

    Great! Those stacks are full of motivation and inspiration! I'm surprised that some here would be shocked at 100 one yard cuts being part of a stash.
