Most pieces of fabric of 1/2 yard or less have been cut into pieces that I use for my quilts. I have 2 1/2 inch squares 3 1/2 inch squares, 4 1/2 inch squares and 6 1/2 inch squares. I also have 2/1/2 by 6 1/2 inch strips. I have a tote box of pieces in each of these dimensions. I also have a shoe box of 6 1/2 inch strips of various strips. Anything smaller than 2 1/2 inches square is thrown in a BIG box to be used for crumb blocks. I don't consider anything over 1/2 yard a scrap. With all those squares just waiting to be sewn into quilts, I'm itching to sew another 1,000 pyramids quilt.
