    They are very small scraps. People make quilts with them.

    I love strips and crumbs. I don't have much room to spread out.

    Crumbs are the size pieces DH thinks we're crazy to keep!
    Crumbs are the scraps one aquaintance uses to stuff dog beds.
    Crumbs are pieces small enough to stick to your sweatpants and follow you all over the house.
