I started neatly storing scraps in see through containers by color. As the piles grew by years I ran out of boxes and space ( my room is small, and so is my apartment)to store them. Now I seem to toss all in the largest boxes I happen to find, dump them all in and hope for the best. Should be the other way round, I quess. I do PLAN a lot though. Maybe some day...I have more scraps than fabrics. I love scrap quilts. Only when I make one I seem to have more scraps than I had to start with!Must find a bigger storage box.
