Scrap Fabric Projects

Sewing is great but it can also create lots of scrap fabric in the process. What do you do with all those scraps? Do you save every scrap piece of fabric? Do you throw everything away? Well, you can do lots of sewing projects with scraps of fabric, and they become useful and eco-friendly items you will use all the time.

I often keep anything larger than a fat quarter for another project. I fold it up and keep it on the shelf. I find a fat quarter is usually enough for most projects. For anything smaller I either make a scrap fabric project, make a sample to practice a sewing technique, or I shred it to use it as stuffing in a future sewing project.
