So for this one quilt I did, I have a lot of pieces that didn't measure right for the quilt and I had to redo them. So now... I have alot of really small squares...about 3inch by 3inch and some 4 inch by 3 inch and some 2inch by 3,1/2 inch etc pieces and not always that same size...but about. I want to put them together to make a panel for pillows to match the quilt in my living room. I have heard of "scrap quilts" which uses these odd pieces, however, in searching on YouTube..I find only only tuts that show how to use strips and you sew the strips onto a foundation piece,and make it large, then use a template to cut the size strips you want etc.
However, these little pieces won't do that. They are small squares/rectangles. So if I sew one down to the foundation, then sew another one next to it, after 3-4 of them, I will have an odd side that I can't cover.
I don't think I am explaining this right, but maybe you can get the point of what I am trying to say...how do you use up your small scraps? Scraps that are around 3 inches in size, but still not all the same size?
