2 1/2 " strips or blocks come in handy.

Ditto.

I don't use small scraps but I put them in a bag and when the bag is full I mail it to a friend who is going through kemo and had to sell everything to pay all her bills. She uses them to make small gifts for the doctors and nurses that she sees on a regular basis.

I save the selvedges I cut off, if they have the dots and writing, or are especially pretty... Later I'll make some selvedge creation out of them, maybe placemats.

The little scraps too small to sew can always be used to stuff something! Waste not, want not, right? ;O)

The smallest that I have ever worked with is i1/2. Did not enjoy it thou.

Some of my quilting friends are saving small scraps to fill dog and cat beds for the local humane shelter. Might be something for you to think about?

Hi,

An 1" is the small I will keep but I used far smaller.

Hope everyone has a great weekend , very cold here in Bflo, NY in the single digits tomorrow

When I gave away my scraps, I sent pics so people could see what I had.

I keep small pieces in ziplock sandwich bags. I have the plastic bins and sort by color. When I am looking for a piece the bags slide and are much easier to sort than digging through fabric pieces. I reuse the bags when I finish off a piece.

If you want to put every last scrap to use, take it to Goodwill or such. Mark the bags "Recycle" They can sell the unwanted fabric and clothing which is then recycled and kept out of landfills

About an inch and a half for postage stamp quilts. Can't get muych smaller than that and still have a seam.
