I LOVE scraps!! I also buy scraps from other people, including my LQS, online, yard sales (I try to catch them in the ad section here, but I notice they get snatched up quick!! :)) etc…. I use them all the time. I usually end up cutting 2 inch squares out of them and I use them as ‘Leaders and Enders’ meaning I sew up two 2” squares after I sew a block for another project to keep from having thread tails, when I get a bunch of these I sew them into 9 patches, I don’t have enough for a big quilt yet, but I plan on making a quilt, table runner or even pot holders with these. I also use all my other scraps for various projects and swaps.

Cheers!
