I labeled using an index card place inside the box loose so if I need to change it I can. As long as you have 2.5"strips you can cut those down to 2.5" squares or into other shapes with a width of 2.5". I cut my odd pieces into bricks 3.5"X 6.5" for a future scrap quilt. I have cut other pieces that are large enough into 10" layer cake size and put in the clear box that Joann Fabrics has in their scrapbooking section- Protect n Store brand - it's 12X12 so you don't get sloshing or folding of the pieces. I don't cut charm size because I can cut down the layer cake if needed. I also have a box of 2.5" squares that I use as leaders and enders - from Bonnie's Quiltville website.
