I have to say I use a desk drawer at my side for scraps easy to use for to getting fast. I use them to see how a drawn project looks. Like purse, bag, block etc.
List: To check fabric and thread color, make sure sewing machine's tension is good, matching colors, bags to keep items in, to give away. Bags for kids at school, church, etc. Linings for bags or pocket books. Practice embroidery by hand or embroidery machine. I had enough to make a tent for grandkids last summer, scrap tent that is. Then another tent out of a mesh fabric I bought and found it did not work out for me, but great for tent. Enjoy your scraps and share them. True I may not have as many scraps as some people.
