Very Narrow Strips
Can anyone suggest an organization that I can contact that might use very narrow strips. These are from about 1/2" - 1" and width of fabric (some a bit wider). They are cuttings from edges of fabric for strip (Jelly Rolls). I hate to toss them if there is a use. I thought of making crocheted rugs. Any leads will be appreciated.

You can clip them randomly, arrange on dissolving fabric or netting and free motion quilt all over them, making a new fabric.

check with a local guild, senior center, scout groups - even the public school art department.
i use strips that size for hooking rugs- and lots of (groups) do so also- there may be some ladies at the senior center (or a convelescent home/assisted living facility) that would love the strips to crochet into rugs or other items- i give alot of small scraps to the local pre-school & elementary school- the teachers are always grateful (& very creative) with donations- the 4-H & scout groups are pretty creative too- and appreciate donations (if you find the right person)
