I read a post a while back where a quilter put out her tiny pieces for the birds to use when building their nests. As long as they're not Blue-jays, I'm okay with that. A Blue-jay dived bombed my cat once. She was probably stalking one at the time.

I am also thinking about making some quilted potholders later on and was wondering if I could use the real tiny pieces as filler for the potholders? Suggestions as to what to do with teeny weeny material pieces?
