I sent all mine to my sister in Oregon a year ago. Now I'm saving them because I want to use them as book titles on a bookshelf quilt. I've also made fabric out of them - sewn them all together. I seen crafts, such as little bags made out of them and it suits my nature to 'use it all'. I've also seen articles of clothing made from them. I don't save tiny plain white ones and how much I cut off depends on how much of the fabric I need. If I can I leave at least a 1/4 " of the pattern on it.
