You might want to post this in the Sale/Trade section. More people will respond there.

I'd love some crumbs! You can jam a lot into the flat rate boxes from the P.O. That's probably the easiest way to send them.

I can use anything as small as 1" square. So yeah, pretty small!

is there a difference between scraps and crumbs... i have a drawer full of scraps that just sit there accumulating...a lot are in strips or oddly shaped lol
in order for them to be crumbs to send out, do they need to be ironed and cut to specific shapes or sizes?
im rather horrible in the cutting dept. (tis why ive started buying more precut squares) lol

Crumbs are just the smallest usable scraps. No, don't cut or iron them. Whoever gets 'em can do that when/if needed.

Same here Tanya! Oddly shaped and small and a terrible cutter that's why I buy layer cakes, charm packs and jelly rolls :lol:

I just finished a quilt for my neighbor, who wanted a quilt on fishing, just this morning I was wondering what I would do with the left over pieces. anybody who wants them, let me know. like others I don't cut to well.

Any other little crumbs left I can use 1.5 - 2".
