I also don't precut scraps so that I can use it however I want when I use it. There are lots of ways to make quilts with scraps. I read a posting on the board last year about mile a minute scrap quilt. I haven't made one with it yet but I know I will. I am trying to get them together by color though. to me that seems like the best way to keep them. But for those who are highly organized and want them all in precise order, then maybe you would prefer the method of precutting before storing. It is really how you want to use them.
Jill I wish I had been at the goodwill store you took them to a minute after they put them out for sale
