I found a few scraps in cleaning out the quilt closet, and they were 3.5 inch wide. I just pieced them together with 3/4 inch strips. Now what do I do with them? Make a border?
Have a lovely day!

Here’s my idea if you want to stretch them. Take a large square (10”?) and cut it randomly going one direction. Insert a 1-1/2” side strip of your stripe in it and sew it back together. Lay them out with the strips going horizontally then vertically. I’ve seen scrap patterns like this with a single fabric as the “strip”.
I know you have some very clever ideas-- can't wait to see what you do, I'm intrigued!
Sometimes it's just fun to play with no goal in mind. We all should do that more often. Thanks for sharing.
I love the look, but have to ask--was this labor intensive? Looks like it would have been!
That looks interesting and fun!
They can be used for lots of things, lovely scrap piecing.
Hi Julie, these are wonderful scraps and I will be interested in what you do with them. Happy planning/stitching!
I also like Mama JOan's idea - looks and sounds interesting.
Such a great idea Julie you are amazing with your quilting
