You've been saving all those lovely fabric scraps from all your sewing and quilting projects because you can't bear to throw them away, right? Here is a project that will help you finally put them to use! I'll show you how to use your scraps to compose an image with shape and color, how to layer them for raw edge applique, how to stitch kantha-cloth style, and how to finish off your piece for a neat edge. You can use this technique to make small works of art, pincushions, pillows, or even entire quilt-tops!
