What measurement do you use to decide when you throw strips away
#3
I've started collecting my smaller stuff for string quilts, and am using pretty much anything larger than 1/2" (since my 1/4" seams are very scant at times). Biggest consideration is what to do with it - pattern/shape.
Anything smaller becomes stuffing for pads for cats/dogs at our local animal shelter.

I don't usually keep anything under 1 inch. Some people use smaller pieces for miniatures sewn with 1/8 inch seam allowances. I don't do minis but I sometimes save long narrow strips to tie up brush from the garden for trash day.
