I have been putting my scraps onto fusible sheets 19in x19 and when I get a chance sewing straight lines. I will either donate to my craft class or make a few fabric boxes with them. Getting them out of my scrap bins#
I have tried uploading a picture with no luck!....the picture icon does not work for me.

Or use “quick reply” and hit the “advanced” button (at the bottom) and the paper clip will come up.
Remember to scroll across to the “upload” button once the photo is attached.

I made this with my scraps and quilted it with stitch in the ditch. I’m going to make a computer sleeve out of it as soon as I finish the 2 quilts I’m working on. This is 17 inches x 24 inches (45 cm x 61cm).

I didn't keep small scraps. Recently, I began keeping strips. One gallon ziplock bag has 2.5 inch strips, for a future jellyroll, and one bag has other strips. My "scraps" are usually the extra backing trimmed after sandwiching my quilt, about a foot wide sometimes. I have them folded and sorted into two stacks: solid/not solids. I haven't made a scrappy quilt, yet, but am quite inspired by the onesI see here.
I ordered a set of six clear tubs/lids to separate scraps by color. I made 2 stacks of 3 containers. The solids are inside a baggie in the tub. I still have a larger tub with multi-colored pieces that needs to be sorted, but quilting gets in the way.
BTW, I love scrappiness!

I make them into hears for the I Found a Quilted Heart program.

It is something my husband and I do together and then hand them where ever we go.
