I have been trying to think of a logical way to sort and store my leftover fabric pieces after cutting. I tried a craftbox, but it was too limiting.

With 2 inches being my smallest width, I find that I have various shapes and lengths of scraps. How do you store your scraps?
I am beginning to have arthritits in my hands so don't like working with really small pieces (honestly never have liked working with small pieces) for strips I use them to tie up plants in my garden which is quite lovely! and also use as packing material when you send presents and let the other person figure out what to do with them.
