I keep all my batting pieces together. And I try to keep my fabric scraps somewhat sorted by size. I also try to keep the scraps sorted by type- batik, 30's, civil war, christmas etc. I use alot of ziplock gallon and two gallon bags and then throw into big containers.

I have a seperate bucket for batting trimmings. I save everything that is more than about 1 1/2 inch wide. its amazing how fast an how much can get accumulated. I use small trimmings pieced together in potholders.
Larger pieces more than 10 inches wide get folded and in its own bin.

I keep batting scraps in one bag, flannel in a small box, fleece in another bag, and regular quilting cottons sorted by color in smaller bags inside a larger bag. I currently have all the blues & whites in a separate bag with log cabin foundations for a WIP that I work on when I feel like sewing but don't want to think too much. I just have to remember blue or white and sew on the line.
