What a wonderful lady-like way to handle the situation.
I use three different long armers and none of the trim w/o asking first and all return the scraps. Backing scraps can be used for scrappy quilts &/or binding and batting scraps can be joined and used in wall hangings, tablerunners, coasters &/or place mats, etc.
