Macybaby: I hear you on small leftovers that keep multiplying in the stash. The cutting requirements for Clue 3 seemed likely to encourage my scrap pile to grow. When cutting the required strips for each unique set from a quarter yard, I always needed all of 1 or more strips and just a bit more from the next strip. Which left me lots of scraps cut in strips. I figured this was intentional by Bonnie to encourage us to adopt her scrap savers system!
