Plus it gives me a little break from the blocks for my project. Some times I just need to sew to feel better. These little scraps blocks are good to get my brain thinking and in a short time you will have enough to make a new blanket. Some times I add one color and make the half traingle crumble block .It is fun. It is like free fabric! Just don't get overwhelmed.I leave on small box next to me and I tuck any other boxes away until I am ready

Have Fun! If you really can not do scraps there are many of us who would be willing to put those peices.
