5" square
3.5" square
2.5" strips
1.5" squares

And in theory, when I cut fabric for a new quilt, I'm going to immediate cut it into usable scrap pieces and keep the bin mostly empty.

I've spent the last hour ironing (and made a very slight dent in the scraps), and I wanted to take a break and share with y'all! :mrgreen:
I like your style. (I'm not a "scrapper" but would love to be). I think I might try this, except I may do strips instead of squares for the 3 1/2 and the 2 1/2, since I'm a "stripper." :lol:

P>S> When is a piece qualitied to be a scrap? :roll:
