    If you do a search here, you will find more input. This subject has been covered recently, so you might not get a lot of immediate answers to this post, but you never know ;-)

    Most of my scraps are slivers, really just the tiny 1/4" or less from the trimmed blocks. Anything that looks big enough for future use gets stored and eventally used in another project. So I guess I save anything bigger than 2" square.
