I'm bound to have scraps from these, but some are satin, some are knits, there is just a large variety. I was wondering if it would be worth it to cut the scraps from these fabrics into squares and strips as I finish my clothing items and use them for a scrappy quilt? Or would it be too big of a pain to be worth it? Has anyone here ever done something like that? I could go longer w/o buying any fabric (except for backings) for quilting if I can use my apparel fabrics in quilts as well, but if it won't be worth it then I don't want to waste my time.
