I think you should do whatever your heart desires with your scraps. You have given me food for thought, that's for sure. I may have a scrap quilt in my future!

(I know you do love FQs!) But I'm sure you could make an inch or two of a dent cutting up strips or squares. Plus, they probably pack nicer.Leah Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16063458621042037769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22312109.post-68742964369073602802009-01-31T13:03:00.000-08:002009-01-31T13:03:00.000-08:00definitely save your scraps. they are potential qu...definitely save your scraps. they are potential quits just like the yardage is.<BR/><BR/>as for how to count the amount of scraps used, just find a quilt of a similar size and use the same yardage figures for your scraps.pdudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372143874425562139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22312109.post-9152462276493158682009-01-31T10:07:00.000-08:002009-01-31T10:07:00.000-08:00You could find a pattern you like in your scrap bo...You could find a pattern you like in your scrap book and use your cut pieces as leaders and enders when you do your other projects.

You will just have to stay away from looking at FQS until you get done with the top. LOL I had been looking at the book on the right, but never have seen the other one. I'll have to check it out.InfinityQuilter/Knitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055219106315749632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22312109.post-65038046222306968072009-01-31T08:26:00.000-08:002009-01-31T08:26:00.000-08:00Vicky, I love your thoughts on scraps!

It helps keep things under control. If you use a pattern go ahead and add up the total yardage used. They usually include an approximate amout of scaps so take that off the stash!
