Wow it's been a crazy month(s). My craft/sewing room has been completely reorganized and furniture moved. This was due to the one suspect wall with possible water damage, which is still waiting to be fixed. The silver lining of this story is (a.) none of my supplies, equipment or furniture was damaged and (b.) This has forced me to clean and have a new layout for my sewing space. Yay! I probably would have never figured out this awesome configuration of furniture without the damage which appears to be quite minimal thankfully. I will share pictures when everything has been fixed and the final pieces of furniture moved.
Now on to today's actual post...Squares!
When I finish a project and end up with scraps like this...
I like to cut them up into squares as small as 2" and as big as 4½" or 5" and put them in plastic bags labeled with the size.
Sometimes when I'm lazy (or have available a long skinny strip) I'll usually cut it into a 2½" strip or 2" would be the narrowest I would go.
Anything smaller than the 2" square I generally throw away or sometimes use as a sewing scrap. Someday I hope to create a quilt using all these squares in a mishmash of colors.
What do you do with your scraps? And when it a piece of fabric small enough that you'll throw it away?
Thanks for reading♥
