I use these on my charity scrap quilts. Reply Paul Leger March 28, 2022 - 6:50 pm Hi Christi, I keep everything 1 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ or larger. Everthing frpm 1/4″ to 1 1/2″ goes to a friend. Everything else goes to another friend who makes cat toys. No waste. Reply Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
