I have a better suggestion..... if you know of someone who is just getting into patchwork quilting, she'd probably love to have those scraps. That's the situation I'm in right now and it's frustrating. Last time I moved, I had to get rid of several huge black bags and boxes of scraps and even large cuts of fabric! I vowed never again to give away or throw away fabric. I haven't sewn for years now so have NO scraps to play with. If you are a member of a quilting group or sewing group, ask the other members if they know of someone who could use them.
