Old Rack and Cutter Quilt

This is a rack where small quilts hang for display anywhere in the house from time to time.  But the other day a better use developed.  When working with strips or strings, it is nice to know the length and this worked perfectly.  Best yet, it easily stood right next to my sewing machine.


When the project is completed, I'll have to post a picture.

Then in my continued detective work for the saga of the lost strawberries, up jumped a piece from a cutter quilt purchased sometime ago.  It is only 15" x 17" but in good condition, clean as a whistle and stain free.  For the quilting stitches a thicker thread was used and the stitches are a bit longer than normal but very uniform.  It is really a pretty piece and it would be great to do something more permanent for it. The darker edge has some very frayed binding.  Now my mind has to come up with a use for it before it falls back into the black hole.
