Quilt backs, pillow cases for children's hospital, pillow case cover for donation quilts, strip pieced journal covers, and if all else fails a sting quilt! Once those calicos are cut into strings and mixed with newer scraps, they blend and look great. And when you get sick of them, do a giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Debbie...scrap/string quilts! I also got some donated to me...and have started a split nine patch, and it looks really cool! Think of it as vintage fabric...and look at the quilt patterns popular at the time!
ReplyDeleteBut, if all else fails...string quilts!!
