I like to fussy cut, but I definitely use the scraps! My mom was a teen/young adult during the great depression, raised 7 kids, and taught us to "waste not, want not". Scraps have to be really small for me to throw them away. If I don't think I can use them they go in a craft bin for 3yo DGD to glue to the things she makes.

My very first quilt which is shown on my avatar had fussy cut center blocks. I used fabric I had left over from a bedspread I made for my boat. It had sailing ships, light houses, stars and a blue background like water. The other fabrics I chose were all related somehow. One looked like seaweed in the ocean, another like sand, another like ocean water, and a final with little red anchors. The backing had blue and red ships wheels all over it.
