Last fall when I was in a totally uninspired funk, I took the strips from the Scrap Bin and divided them into hot and cold. Next, the strips were randomly cut to assorted lengths - generally 3 to 5" and stitched together in no order whatsoever except they were kept in hot and cold categories. Yesterday, I appliquéd a Happy Snowman on a square of polka-dotted black. All it needed to become a delightful preemie quilt was a few trips around with the string of bright scraps. The next time your creativity has disappeared, go play in the scraps. It's a good place. Polly
