I have reached the end of today's posts on scrappy--all 13 pages. please don't post any more--I need to get off here.but I did not want to miss one single suggestion, etc.
I used to just throw scraps in a tub. too much mess when I finally decided to use them or they overflowed ! now, I cut scraps into what usable sizes I want to use and place in boxes marked for that size. takes a lot less room, you do your cutting after each couple of projects. I now cut off 1 1/2" STRIPS from almost every fabric I buy. this goes in the log-cabin or string box.
I gifted two boxes of cut scraps to quilting buddies & still have more than I will probably ever use. so fun to be able to do that.
leaders & enders--hurray !
