OK, now I have to tell you a story. DH and I make scrappy quilts and for years there were three different ladies who made quilts wholesale and saved all their scraps for us. We're talking garbage bags full here. One is particular would fill up our car.
DH started making tiny piece quilts with squares less than 3/4".

We met another lady who had seen his tiny piece quilts and who had a LQS. She said, several times, Oh I will save my scraps for you. One day we came in the shop and she said, Oh I have a bag of scraps for you. And came out from the back with a small ziploc bag, partially filled with little pieces. We both smiled and said, thank you very much. I would like to say when we got back in the car, we said, Bless her heart, but we were both laughing too much. But we did use her scraps!
