Are you supposed to sort scraps??? OMG !
I have tried several times to make sense of my scraps. I have huge basket full, and a laundry-type bag full and it's on my "to do" to sort them, but there's always something that comes up, like house chores, that it gets put further down on the priority list. Lately I have been trying to do is when I am working on a project and have the scraps-- getting them sort of organized at the time. I have on my "project list" a scrappy quilt using 2 & 1/2" squares, so I've been cutting those up right away and they are in a plastic shoe box. After I was done with Christmas fabric this year I cut the scraps into various sizes--4" squares, 8", 10" 2 & 1/2" and strips etc etc and stored those for projects next year.
When I'm really in the mood to sort, I dump them out on the floor and while I'm watching TV I sort!
