Non Cotton Scraps

non cotton scraps
Most of my stash is quilting fabric. What I do have that is non quilting I sort by type, fold, and store the same but in a separate area, I sort the scraps by color into small baskets, I do not cut into strips or squares. I make doll cloths toys, tote bags, and anything else the grands ask for.

If you have scraps of polyester (old style stuff) you can make a quick quilt out of just squares or even large pieces. I know that sometimes the Fire and Police depts will take those as the polyester doesn't stain - it just lives forever

I still occasionally sew clothing, so anything with any yardage I keep, although the non cotton fabric is kept in plastic totes, but if it's not yardage, I either donate it to our local Humane Society thrift store or I cut into pieces and make pet beds for the Humane Society, I also use the scraps that are too small for me to use, and make pet beds with those also.
