Is your stash starting to expand and invading other areas than your sewing studio? Then it is time to ask a few questions:
Are your muffin bins topped and about to explode at any minute?
Do you feel overwhelmed? Not sure how to use it or what to do with it, and almost to the point of giving it away?
I feel that way too, at times! Not to worry! I believe I have a cure for this common ailment.
Each Thursday I will find some ideas and patterns to use up some of the scraps and even some helpful hints to declutter, and control our stash.
Let’s look at taming our everflowing small strips. You know the ones that are cut off from border strips and just not quite big enough. And yes, I do mean those little crumbs or 2.5 or smaller pieces.
Our first one comes from Just Get It Done Quilts, Crumb Strips.
