I made a few of these string blocks a while back (like about over a year ago - see April 13 post. One day when I am not too tired I'll learn how to do that link thingy with the time stamp)

I have finally got around to trimming them all and here they are, up all stacked up and ready to go:

Guess what?
Yep,

More scraps!
See what I mean?
I was really, really strong, I moved them from the cutting table to a plastic bag. The plastic bag hasn't made it to the bin yet, but it's a start, right? I haven't yet retrieved a single piece - emphasis on yet :-)

Oh I SO understand! I can not throw out fabric. Can't.
How small does a scrap have to be, before it becomes rubbish?
This is going to be painful but ...
...take those teensy scraps and put them in a brown paper bag and then walk them all the way to the trash pickup. You will feel like a new, lighter, no-longer-guilty woman!!!

I think I will just hoard mine, & when I cark it, my kids can toss them away!
Love your colourul strings there.
