Anything that looks too small I now save for a lady who makes dog beds for the RSPCA. Now I don't feel guilty about it. I do cut kids fabrics into squares 2.5" - 6.5". I have these in separate zip lock bags. Also have 1.5" - 2.5" strips. Anywhere from 3" upwards. I still find it hard to part with but I just think of the dogs and maybe cats who will have a warm bed.
