Hi Reb, when I started losing my vision (I see things bent) and my ability to cut was fading, I did all my scraps and many boxes from members here into my own precuts. I only cut what I normally use, down to 1.5". mostly 2.5" and 2" strips if there was enough, everything else into squares. I have absolutely loved having a scrap pantry and am into it nearly daily.
I never use layer cakes or 5" pieces so that would have been useless for me.
Point being, cut what You will use, gift away if you aren't a scrap quilter
the 1.5"ers go in 2 boxes behing the machine (neutral and color) and I use them for leader end 4 and 9 patches.
