I keep a container of small scrapes to use for when I'm trying out a new decorative stitch or to see if what I'm trying to accomplish will work before doing it on the real thing. Then of course I have scraps from 1" wide up to 3" wide, then they jump up to 5" and "large scraps". I never cut my scraps to fit a certain size but throw them into the container they're closest to in width so some may actually be 1.5" wide and not 1.0" and so on. I try to go thru my scraps whenever I start working on a new quilt project so I can keep the scrap bins controlled somewhat.................of course that never happens and it seems I make more scraps than I use.
