I also save my "unusable scraps" in a large pillowcase. When it is full, I make animal beds for the shelters. I basically make pillow cases of various sizes, stuff them with the scraps, and sew the end shut. The shelters are appreciative and the animals get a snuggly bed to lay on and no fabric went to waste. It's a win/win for everyone!<br /><br />Laura in AZUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03187086964218585512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20394496.post-2362057966729079412009-11-18T02:23:19.650+10:302009-11-18T02:23:19.650+10:30This is the first Scrap Castle I have seen.
