I started chipping away at my stash about a year ago, specifically the scraps. I had a really nice, large twig basket crammed so full of scraps that so far, I have made 3 “jelly roll” style quilt tops, a mega-jelly-roll quilt top (using 6″ strips rather than 2.5 inch strips), and a log cabin quilt top.
Here’s one of the jelly roll quilts. I added a 10″ white border, and made a coordinating pillowcase that uses the binding fabric as an accent. It was a gift to a young lady heading off to college:

Here’s the log cabin. It’s still a flimsie; I hope to get to it sometime this summer. I don’t usually like high contrast quilts for myself, but I like the way these fabrics work together.
