Slow sunday

Do you save batting pieces?

I do if over 3 inches wide

I use them in mugrugs or pouches

They call it Frankenbatt

Once I have enough I will finish stuff like Dunkins placemat 

So I pulled out my scrap bin

One of many lol

Dollar store plastic container and it holds a TON

See? It fits perfectly on my shelf too

Every once in a while......ahem.......often it gets full of those pieces I just can't part with

All sizes and shapes

When I want to play I iron them up and cut the biggest size I can

I save 1.5 inches, 2 inch,  2.5 inch, 3 inch, and 5

Sometimes 3.5 for fun

My most used sizes are the 1.5 and 2.5

Once I cut the squares I put them in clear barrel containers ....free if you get someone to eat the cheetos or snacks in them

Then when I just have 10 min to sew I grab a barrel and go

The tinier pieces I put in my crumb bin for other play

Do you have a scrap saving system?

I laugh because people say why do you cut it up you may need it

I say because it was just sitting in a bin and I will use it as a square
