Bev here's what I'd do if I were you - sort those scraps into longish thinnish bits, bigger squarish bits and tiny bits - but big enough for a seam! The long thin bits I would make into strings of 1 1/2" or 2/ 12" wide to use for strippy or log cabin, or even scrappy sashing. The bigger squares I would keep for more general scrappy - like that 9 patch you did a while back for example. And the smaller bits - I'd make a ton of crumby blocks, by the method in Izy's tute of say 3 or 4" square (depending on what size square rulers you've got!) Then you can join them all together with sashing et voila! One crazy quilt!
