That is really cute!
Mostly I put them in the closet and they multiply.
Very cute. I just make quilts out of my scraps.

It depends on the size of the scrap. Sometimes I just pitch them.
I am saving the tiny ones for my DSIL to make a dog bed.
I used some odd sized ones to tie up my tomato and pepper plants this year.

Before I ever started quilting, I got strip scraps from my mom and tied them around a wire wreath form (one with four rows of wire) It now hangs on an old window frame in my family room.
I use a lot of my trimmings and very small scraps to stuff pet beds/cushions which I then donate to a favorite pet shelter.
If you feel like you're special...it's 'cause you are!

I just started making the toothbrush rugs. Fun, but take a lot of time. Ido them watching tv. They also use tons of fabric but wof strips work the best. I pieced some 2"x5" to make a strip. I hope the machine sewing doesnt come apart.
My scraps are sorted by strips AND block sizes. I do not consider them to be scraps but quickies when free styling quilting which I do often.
