I have move coming in few months and have started attacking the pieces I have saved and decided to throw out any smaller than 2 1/2" and was amazed how many trash cans I filled but it all takes so much time.

Horray for a new sewing space!

FYI. Goodwill, etc. take all fabric. The fabric is recycled. Doesn't matter the size so can take small pieces in a large bag and tie it and it will not go in a landfill here or shipped somewhere. I save all my scraps and then take when decluttering house.

Congratulations. I hope your new home is all you could want. What a quick turn around and with no notice. Wow!

So happy your move has turned out well, and with a bonus!! When I began quilting, I always said "I'm not gonna be one of those women on YouTube with the wall of scraps behind them, no way!" Well, I've only been quilting since January, and I have amassed a strong little collection of fabric due to over-buying yardage (what if I make a mistake???) or getting what I *thought* was the correct complimentary color (only to discover it was NOT), etc. I'm on my 2nd queen size quilt and I MUST get busy making string blocks or patchwork blocks so this doesn't get out of hand! LOL
