And reusing the veggie and fruit tubs is a great idea, though I have a couple dozen of the small plastic containers to use (about the same size as in the photo) that were in our motorhome. Watching now to see when you do something with them.Lynn W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13781034689105499136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21409904.post-50288725623061701572011-04-16T09:01:44.692-04:002011-04-16T09:01:44.692-04:00What a great idea and great use of your leftovers!...What a great idea and great use of your leftovers!

Also, the bits can be used for paper piecing small areas.Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992246515171206371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21409904.post-37975489785299106922011-04-15T22:10:15.650-04:002011-04-15T22:10:15.650-04:00It is nice that you could cut such usable pieces o...It is nice that you could cut such usable pieces out, alas since I don't have the Go I would cut up the pieces and fuse them to a piece of fabric, then machine quilt it and use it like a miniture quilt.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12847873740956347807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21409904.post-49738656975006812652011-04-15T20:59:30.449-04:002011-04-15T20:59:30.449-04:00I save the bits, you never know when you might nee...I save the bits, you never know when you might need them for a project.Gene Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731141629634998152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21409904.post-53073636697962339622011-04-15T19:57:41.696-04:002011-04-15T19:57:41.696-04:00Great sorting container!

I don't have tons of fabric or anything.. but I don't have a lovely GO! or a Go Baby.. or the lovely Rose of Sharon die.. which by the way makes fabulous shapes! Just imagine bunches of those bits and bobbles made up.. then made into a mystery quilt of magic.. I can see it now.. ahhhhhhhhh!Mommarockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551129981851834217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21409904.post-90324893099025789342011-04-15T18:58:00.353-04:002011-04-15T18:58:00.353-04:00Great idea, Katrina!
