When my scraps start to fill up my scrap tub I go thru and make a bunch of HST out of them.
Someday hope to make a scrap HST quilt with them. I have watched a couple of shows on it and they make a beautiful quilt. But it takes hundreds of HSTs.
I have a couple of other ways to use up scraps and use them also. Cutting into different size strips and charms size squares is a great way to use up scraps.
My stash is in clear tubs on shelves. Folded and put in the tubs on end so I can see each piece easily by pulling out the tub for the color I am looking for.
