More blues from under bed storage container!
I spent the better part of this month taking all of my blue stash (most of which is 20-30+ years old) and cutting it up into pre-cuts. I have been doing this every month for the RSC color. I figure that I will be more likely to use them if they are pre-cuts.

This is what I wound up with. Fat quarters, charm squares, layer cakes, jelly roll strips, and 2-1/2" squares. I am pretty excited about that.

This is the gray background. The photo isn't dark but the blue strips do show up.
I still have strips and crumbs left for my other RSC projects I am working on.

I agree sometimes it is easier to use it when it is pre-cut - great job!
What an interesting idea for using your dark BLUE stash (and other colors, too!) There are many patterns devoted to pre-cuts these days. I hope this really works for you!
I'm so impressed with your cutting and organizing project! That's such a great idea, and takes a lot of persistence to stick with it. Those precut pieces will be so useful!
Can't wait to see what else you make with your precuts. You have a lot of creativity.
Cutting your stash makes it really easy to find what you need for projects, a great idea.
You have more fabric than I do. Congratulations!
