I am a former LQS owner and when we made shop samples and had scraps from classes I would put them into a bin. I had two ladies that came and took every piece. even the 1 inch strips and small two inch pieces. They would coordinate the colors and make the most beautiful scrap quilts. Most were baby or lap size. Then another customer that had just purchased a Tin Lizzie and needed practice quilted them. All were given to local charities. Why don't you ask your local shop if they would be willing to do the same?
