I'm in the process of making a scrappy quilt that inspired me to cut a lot of scraps. The quilt needed 3.5 inch strips cut into various lengths which dictated what pieces I pulled. I had a lot of 2.5 pieces so I cut them into potato chip quilt size and the rest into 1.5 strips for strip blocks. Cutting for days on end was a bit tedious but I feel that this has helped with some of the overflow. I was keeping tiny bits, thinking that they could be useful one day for paper piecing but after 20 years of finding patterns that don't require paper piecing, it's time to let go. I want to get better at scrap quilts and ultimately want to truly feel like I'm using fabric I already own.
