I keep like scraps together, and any small pieces are cut 2 & 1/2" by however wide. When I get a small handful, I start sewing them into my own jelly rolls. Once I have a good sized "jelly roll", I use it to make my own pre-quilted fabric for small projects. I just sew it onto batting and a piece of backing, then cut out small projects like cell phone pockets to hang around the neck to keep it close, but not risk dropping it, and use extra lengths of binding to finish the top edges. Some pieces on my jelly rolls might only be 1" wide, but it just gives a crazy quilt look. I always have someone who needs a little pocket, bag, wallet, Barbie doll quilt, etc. I also use small scraps of batting for these. Here is one I made for DD to hold her cell phone in, in her purse to protect it from other "purse dwellers".
