Laundered Levi's

These are discarded laundry samples of the bottoms of men's golf shorts - sturdy fabric and enough variety in color to make a charity quilt - given to me by my friend at Levi. They were headed to the trash bin when I volunteered, there might be enough for one of our church quilts.
All a person has to do is cut the tracking labels off (six clips of the plastic fasteners); cut off the hemmed bottom while making sure you can squeeze a 9" square out of the result; and then accumulate 63.
Takes a while. Now to wait for a long winter weekend to assemble. It's light now, so I need to go out and weed. Working on the front because we have company coming next weekend.
