I saw scrap birds made at a show last year, and have been meaning to try some. The kind of thing you'd make in an evening by hand. Usually I just make lavender bags etc. Just wondering if anyone makes anything interesting from their scraps?

My aunt would go nuts over this thread!
She used to make patchwork quilts for the veterans at her quilting club, She has a quilting frame and all that. literally hundreds of denim potholders, comforters, a camouflage hunting cape, multiple pet beds, chair slips, and enough gun socks for the army! LOL
 
I use my scraps to make potholders, hot pads, Christmas Ornaments like your little birds.
Christmas ornaments birds have the child's name,date/year and age of each child on the bird's tag.
I also make place mats out of grandchildren's clothes and scraps.
Doll baby quilts come to mind too.
 
Does anyone make "Jerky bags" out of bleached-out blue jeans legs? Those things last forever!
I had a GF once who had a really cool purse made out of some Daisy Duke shorts. You could stuff
A 6 pack, four whoppers, and a bong in that thing, and fill the outer pockets full of stuff.
