My Atlanta quilt guild was working on a group project - sewing several beautiful batik quilts in order to be used to raise money for a youth missions trip. Everyone was slicing and dicing and - horror of horrors! - throwing the little strings and scraps of batiks in the big trash cans. I was stunned. So, I dashed over and scooped out the little piles of gorgeous fabric and announced that I couldn't let that happen. My guild understands my quirks and laughed and poked fun at me. Well, I got the last laugh when the next month I came back and showed them what I created from those trash basket discards.
