No Elisabrat, it is a good point. I have plenty of nice small scraps already and for me 1 1/2 in. is just too small. Strips 2 1/2 and up and squares 5 inches and up unless your partner wants smaller??
Totally agree Elisabrat and Annaquilts.. I only use snippets for small applique pieces, so far I just don't make crumb quilts or small block quilts unless it's a certain block in a sampler quilt. I also just donated a huge box of fabrics..but I think I still have plenty (my dh would be laughing so hard if he read where I just wrote "I think I have plenty", as our lil 4 yr old granddaughter calls my fabric room "Grammy' s fabric shop"). I am sure I will sign up as it sounds like fun, and I can already picture each of us getting in our packages..woo-hoo!!
Off to sort and such, will pm you as soon as I know for sure.

PS I also have a lot of embellishments, vintage buttons, etc as I make crazy quilt squares...whats the consensus on tucking in a few things like that?
