How do I know this? Those clippings are from my As the Spool Turns quilt top. Below is a picture of the fabric strips stitched together.
This next picture shows my spools complete. After laying out the colourful spools in the order I liked, I ironed little freezer paper squares, in numerical order, in the centre of the spools. This helped me to keep the spools in their proper position while stitching the quilt top together.
The centre of the top is all pieced. Now I'm starting on the borders. Sew much fun!! 
Happy Sewing.
