Joy ~ good question, some prints are confusing. I usually do the 'squint' test, then it goes into the closest color-way.
My scraps are in a use-able mess.
I have a tub for smaller than a FQ,~ great for making one or two blocks
a small box for 3.5"+ wide partial strips ~ Quiltvilles Strip Twist
Then 2 drawers full
1)for smaller strips ~ string quilts
2) for assorted smallish pieces ~ applique or crumb quilts
Then one more bag for 1/2" strips, that is for making baskets.
I wish I had room to do the color and size sorting.... but my "studio" used to called a bedroom. ;)
