between a scrap and a crumb??? I've been cutting this afternoon and realized I'm throwing pieces away that someone might consider a crumb. How small or large are crumbs??

it was explaoned to me as
crumbs r anything small than 2 inches scraps any odd shaped or 2-12 inches ( or any left over u have no plan for) |
Thanks for asking! I didn't know that either!!

crumbs can be the little corners you cut off when stitching on the diagonal and trimming, or any small piece you don't want to deal with. i keep different baskets under my cutting table, one for strips- anything narrower than 2" goes into it- i use those for hooking rugs or wrapped clothesline projects- a basket for larger strips (still used for quilting) then a basket for small pieces- the little corners ect- that one is the one i dig through for applique pieces and then a basket for larger scraps. about the only thing that goes into the trash is threads- slivers. everything else is usable either by me or i share.
