There are always little bits of fabric that are too small to be used in crumb quilts. I keep those in ziploc bags and will be using them instead of fiberfill in handmade stuffed animals.
We have shirts with the company logo that we've been asked to not donate to Goodwill--the company doesn't want anyone taking the shirts and potentially masquerading as an employee. I have the group giving me their old shirts that are stained or torn, and I'll eventually gather enough material to make a quilt for one of our charities.
I have bags of blue jeans that aren't quite good enough for donation that will eventually be made into a rag quilt.
:oops: I'm seeing a lot of saving for future projects and not so many projects being done now.
