I agree with Caroline S; it would be fun it would be to "play" in someone elses scrap box.

Love what you have done (you two work well together), with your box of ???????. But my two favs are the first and last. They are something else. You do great work.

Some people like to donate these to the animal shelters in their communities. Keep in mind that lots of us enjoy making scrap quilts, if you are one that does not and still want to use the fabric this is one way to do it.

What a good idea! I've been working on some scrap quilts and didn't like throwing away the "scraps of my scraps". Now I know what to do with them. We have a great animal shelter in Glasgow, KY. I got my Samson there - big orange cat. Actually I brought him there and then adopted him - but that's another story. I know just the pillowcase I'm going to use. Thanks for the tip.

The scrap quilts you made are wonderful. Very creative designs. I'm still working on Bonnie Hunter's Orca Bay mystery quilt. Redesigned so that I can live with it.
