what kind of quilts do you make? what size do you generally use?
start with the largest size you can get from the fabrics- then work your way down- layer cakes are 10" square- charms are 5" square. water color squares are often 2 1/2" square-
log cabin/pineapple blocks can have strips anywhere from 1" on up to how ever wide you want.
when i decided i needed some (scrap therapy) i cut fabrics first 10" squares- then 6 1/2", 5", 4 1/2", 3" & 2 1/2"...all stacked neatly into a tote- the strips i kept strips- if they were less than 2" i put them into my basket for wrapped clothesline and rug hooking projects- the rest i cut into 2 1/2" strips....it works for me- but you need to decide what works for you....dependant upon what you will use.
