Just one more day...fabric giveaway!

Just one more day to submit your ideas for the best use of fabric scraps.  To recap - I'm making three scrap quilts for our church's donation to MD Anderson Children's Cancer Center, but after that I'm giving all of my BRIGHT FABRICS away...that means fat quarters, scraps (good usable scraps), and more.  I collected brights for years when my children were small, but they aren't small anymore - they aren't even home anymore :(   So, I'm passing the torch, and giving it away. 

Leave us a comment, and tell us your best scrap "recipe".  If you have plenty of scraps, and believe that they reproduce when you are not looking - just say "don't enter me" but share with everyone your best use of scraps, or your favorite charity for scrap quilts. 

My love of scraps and fabric has me in my current dilemma, but I know that lots of good can come from such an abundance.  Let's make the world a better place, one quilt at a time!

Ooh, it's like you're speaking right to me -- please don't enter me, even though part of my would love more! (It's not the sensible part of me, sadly.) Well, my favorite use for really small scraps is to back them with some heavy heat n bond, and then fuse them to cardstock and make them into gift tags. At the moment, I've been possessed by the patchwork scarf spirit, which is a fun way to use up leftover strips and squares. Leave no scrap behind! :)

I love the "...one quilt at a time" motto, by the way. I hope to embrace it more fully in the coming year, and really start crankin' out the quilts. Charge!!

Wow, I really love the heat n' bond idea for gift tags. We are making all our gifts this Christmas so I'll have to remember that...thanks for that great tip!

About the "one quilt at a time", wouldn't it be great if every quilter made at least one quilt to give away - that would be thousands of quilts - making the world a better, kinder place - we can do that, we can make a difference!
