ReplyDeleteI usually have at least quarter to half yard pieces left from my quilts. If I have smaller, leftover pieces, I fold them into the larger pieces of the same fabric and put them by color on my shelves. Any small loner goes in a 2 gallon baggie for applique. That way, if I want to use a piece for a project, I know just how much I have, without having to look in a box or bag, hoping to find just a bit more.

ReplyDeleteMy storage changes from month to month. LOL It depends on what i'm working on, and how many containers I've dragged out of the closet. I store nearly everything in plastic containers, but some are in the collapsible bins from the dollar store in my shelves. Two things I'm working on from scraps are in a cardboard box that water comes in. My mom used to do the same thing, but I think hers must have held canned goods.
