Great idea!
My brother takes his tiny scraps or ends and puts them all into old Ball jars with vintage lids. I got one as a gift from the scraps he used to make my scrappy quilt.
Not only do I have the quilt he made with my scrap fabric from various projects, but I also have the scraps in a vintage jar to remind me of the love that went into his gift.
