Scraps and recycle
#24
Waste not, want not is how I view food, fabric, etc.
Living awhile before I married, with a grandmother born in 1889 that quilted and had to be frugal out of necessity taught me not to waste, but always be thankful for what little you may have. I’ve always appreciated that lesson.

You are doing great in organizing your scraps. I have gotten into the habit of cutting leftovers from a project down into 5" squares,2 1/2 inch squares, and 2 1/2 inch strips. It seems to help me in finding fabric for a project.
