I know Eleanore Burns throws her scraps over her shoulder, but I don't have the staff she does :-)
ROFLWTIME !!!!! :lol: :lol:

I use cardboard from cereal boxes to make patterns for applique
Another idea is to use ice cream pail covers,liquid detergent bottles, milk[just about anything with a flat side]. This plastic template material doesn't wear down like cardboard does with repeated tracings. Could also make your own hexigons for Grandmothers Flower Garden[ aki -Quilt Pattis].
