I guess I need to get out more! Holy cow what a game-changer. I don't quilt on the scale you do, so think the smaller system would work better for me. I'm off to investigate it. Thanks for sharing your method of keeping the scraps under control. I sure do enjoy seeing all of your beautiful makes.runlexlouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17195966304492055404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-32308291170649320932022-01-31T17:05:00.074-05:002022-01-31T17:05:00.074-05:00I am working through a pile of fabric that needs c...I am working through a pile of fabric that needs cutting into strips. I discovered your system earlier, quite a lot earlier, but am just getting around to do it. I have cut a lot but this last stack is just bogging me. Hopefully once done, I can keep up by doing it ad each project completes. I plan on making scrappy charity quilts with all strips O am cutting. I am sorting strips by width and then color. Is that correct? I hope? Long job that I hope pays off for me and charity!MerryMeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11523828750002722102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-23567852563751943912022-01-31T13:49:43.392-05:002022-01-31T13:49:43.392-05:00Bonnie, Can I share your quote of the day on Face...Bonnie, Can I share your quote of the day on Facebook?

The result is wonderful, and now I have to come up with ideas of what to use this "old-to-new" fabric for. Fun!! Anything that could be sewn together was sewn together, and the paper-rolls have parts that consist of up to four small pieces. My scrap-user's boxes are empty - hurray!Agneta quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10871982003331636410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-57375837457251467582022-01-28T11:09:40.924-05:002022-01-28T11:09:40.924-05:00Wondering where you ordered your custom Accuquilt ...Wondering where you ordered your custom Accuquilt die with the multi-strip capability?

Glad that you are having fun with the Bags of scraps. While cutting my Parts for the Mystery, I cut a few extra 1 1/2" strips and 2 1/2" Stips for later. Just freezing fog in the early part of the day and outdoor thermometer that stays on 30° here. Brrr. Happt little fish, need to kit some up for myself.
