sorting scraps
#2
I sort larger scraps (1/4 yard or so) by color. Smaller ones just go in a bag until they're cut, usually into strips, and then they're assorted by lights/darks so I can use them for log cabin quilts.

LOL...good luck. I am starting to use my small scraps for cat bed fillings and donating them. the larger ones I am using to make the beds/pillows. I also put an ad out on freecylce for scraps to use for the cats beds that I will donate to the Animal Shelter.

If I was that organized, I'd have no excuse not to do housework too. I need my chaos - keeps people from dropping over so I can quilt!
