    I have read that "Amish" quilters leave their mistakes, maybe even make sure there is one, in every quilt, because only God is perfect. I like that philosophy!

    Please, don't add milk, flour or water to potato soup! The thickness can come from mashing some of the potatoes. In a pinch, use mashed potato flakes to thicken the soup. Yum.

    I sort mine by color somewhat and keep them in the pockets of an over-the-door hanging thing of shoe pockets. Larger scraps I fold and stack. I do not cut until I am actually using them for something.
