I can take a little clutter if I am working on a project. But I don't store lots of scraps. I cut them into squares and strips and use them on scrappy quilts and some times in borders depending on what I am doing. The squares that don't get used will be stored in a pretty metal tin or plastic box labeled according to size. My sewing room is only a 8x10 so I can't let things get out of control. I am always looking for new ways to store things so things won't get out of control. My biggest down fall is quilt books I love to look at them over and over again and I know I will never live long enough to make half of the one I love.
