I want to try Bonnie Hunter's Sister's Choice so I've been cutting a lot of 2.5" strips, if it's smaller than that I cut 2" or 1.5", the shorter neutrals I've been trying to cut into 2.5" x 6.5" pieces. And if it's small, then 2.5" squares or 2" squares. Smaller than that goes into a crumb basket. Slightly larger, if I can get 5" squares, fine, if not then smaller squares or strips.

I leave my large pieces whole unless I don't particularly like them, then they're cut down. Most of the quilts I'm interested in right now either use 2" or 2.5" strips, though I am putting aside assorted smaller sized strips for strings.
