I love scrappy quilts and have determined over many years of quilting what sizes I like to use. I cut my scraps into 1 1/2” strips, and 2 1/2” strips and squares. Previously I tried 5 and 10” squares but found I never used them, so they were cut down to the sizes I use. I do not sort by color but use a shallow basket for each size and each basket is labeled with the size. I have recently started using the pieces left from making a quilt in the backing. Anything used during the process of quilt making goes into a small trash can that sits on the floor near the cutting table. Once the trash can is full, I start cutting into the sizes I prefer. Using a small receptacle keeps the scrap cutting sessions down to a manageable length of time. I don’t think there is a one size fits all way to handle scraps. Each must find what works best for them. Hy
