I have gotten to where I save just about everything. No not a hoarder. I have a shoe box with tissue paper from the shoe boxes. I too iron it quickly. Great for paper piecing. Just got rid of a lot of gift wrap, I gave to a friend who decoupages. She was happy for it. She has a daughter who has autism and makes the most beautiful designs with the wrapping paper. She gets my colored tissue paper. I hang onto the white. getting back on track a little every day with quilting projects. Scraps under 2" square go to the doggy bed bin.
