But at the price of fabric you need to use every inch that you can to make it worth it. Hang in there. Someday they will turn into something wonderful. SOMEDAY!

I keep thinking with my scraps I should use them as pillow stuffing (behind batting of course) the next time I make a pillow and then when I'm desperate for a "scrap I just know I have somewhere" I can take a seam ripper to a pillow, grab my scrap and then stitch it up again.... genius, eh? :) :) LOLWendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13309054512526169985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6354778152505693948.post-35034036307358944572011-08-24T14:08:09.202-06:002011-08-24T14:08:09.202-06:00hey, send those scraps to me!

Some of it was actually yardage. I felt kind of bad about it at first, but donating it to Goodwill, I hope someone will snatch it up, make something they love with it, and that the money will help someone in need. I hope!Victoria Paige @ Boutique Uniquelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09825014379766626729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6354778152505693948.post-6543418082506753852011-08-23T22:09:59.985-06:002011-08-23T22:09:59.985-06:00LOL I hope you didn't find any banana peels ei...LOL I hope you didn't find any banana peels either! :-o I love scraps, but I do need to tame them some and start cutting some into useable pieces~ an GO would really help that process.
