I do this as well but instead of tossing it I put all the snippits in an old pillow case stitching closed every 5" and make dog/cat beds for the animal shelter.

These are great ideas! I save my dryer lint in one during the winter months. In the spring I put it out on the ledge of my neighbor's board fence. The birds love it for lining their nests!

What a great idea for controlling binding...it's always seems to have it's own mind. Thank you to all you talented ladies for sharing your ideas. Now I can recycle used tissue boxes myself instead placing them in the recycling bin. Soooo many talented and thoughtful members of this board. Love you all!!!
