    I sorted all my scraps into groups, like patriotic, flowers, babys, holloween, xmas, fall, western, animals, woodies, boys, girls and so on and then bundled them with kitchen string and put note on top of each and stacked the bundles in a plactic bin and marked scraps on outside of bin. It has worked for me.

    P.S. don't go on her site unless you have lots of time...it is addictive!! :)
    So true!! I'm just finishing the binding on Bonnie's mystery from last year (Carolina Christmas) and getting ready to start my next at a retreat in a couple of weeks.

    I dont separate by color or themes if they are scraps. Only of they are fqs or more.. otherwise Id have tubs lined from floor to ceiling... I figured they are way to small to matter.. If I don't wanna use a 'holiday' one I just toss it back in the see thru drawer it came from..
