I just try to keep my scraps kind of sorted by sizes. After I finish a quilt I clean up my 90" counter and then start getting out more fabrics or scraps for the next quilt. Never stays cleaned up for long. I am continually working on a quilt. My fabrics are all folded and stored in my two large closets. With my puppy I don't get a lot of time sewing. Still trying to keep his accidents down. He is 7 1/2 Months old.
