Me, too - I also buy the 108" wide muslin for spacing blocks and sashing - it's cheaper than the 42-45" wide. I use the scraps and leftovers for string-pieced blocks, linings, backings for small wall hangings, and a zillion other things I can't think of right now.
I've also used the unbleached muslin with 19th century reproduction fabrics for quilts made with those scraps.
