I've been following this thread, and it has really got me thinking! My stash is mainly small yardage amounts ( 1 yd or less.) and l use it in a somewhat scrappy way. When covid hit, the lockdown had me searching thru my scraps ( well organized, fortunately) for more options with each project. I learned more and more about actual use of real scraps. As l ran low, l asked friends l knew online if they were willing to part with some of their unused scraps. A few parcels later, l was the happy recipient of more scraps. I always had more scrap patterns than time to try them all, but l'm still happily working on using scraps plus my stash to try as many as l can before my quilting days end.
