My leftovers in the form of scrappy quilts sure made the folks at the womans shelter happy. but I am of the generation that was taught waste not want not. Never understood the term disposable dollars................. No wonder the USA is 15 trillon in debt up to its ears!! Doesn't matter if it is food or fabric, waste is waste. Guess I worked too hard for my dollars to not stsretch them soooooooooooooo far!
