Hi, I used to sort my scraps by color and then saw a program on scrappy quilting and how to sort and was told to sort by cutting strips in 1", 2" 2 1/2" and 3 1/2" along with squares in these sizes. Then put all the same size strips into one box. Wow, when I did that and saw all the colors together, I got such inspiration and could really see what colors looked great together, even colors I would never had put together before. So, now when I finish a project, I cut the scraps from that project immediately and put them in their appropriate boxes. No more mess and less boxes to take away from my space for large material!
