I have been following Bonnie's use of scraps. I have tubs full of scraps and actually was tired of using them. But one day I discovered the "crayon box" pattern on her site and I had my friend cut me some metal templates. I iron one tub of fabric, brought it to work so I could cut during lunch, and went home and started sewing. To date I have 96 blocks sewn and have a box full of irned fabric yet to cut. This block makes up cute and is easy to sew. Go check it out....www.quiltville.com

This is one of the best articles i've ever read about organizing and using scraps... even incorporating your "not used" pieces... Hope it can help a few!! http://quiltville.com/scrapusersystem.shtml |
Thanks very much I have just started sewing and quilting and have keep all my scraps, just saw a dog or cat bed with very small trims being use so now I am keeping them also. Someone told me to also save the scrap with the fabric name and color bar on it, so yes I am doing that as well, it helps me to match colors.

When the quilt is done I have got my moneys worth. Not going to waste the time to cut and have all those totes full of scraps taking up my fabric room.!!!!!!
