I have been making crocheted pillows from scraps and small amounts of yarn donated to our charity group. Then, I asked my quilting group for donations of scraps they had, so I could stuff the pillows. I just couldn't throw away the scraps I received or cut them all into small pieces, so I sorted, and sorted, and sorted. Now I have bags of skinny strips, wider strips (2.5" or greater), etc. and lots of batting scraps. Fun way to scraps if fabric and yarn and make useful and colorful items. And quicker than scrap quilts.
