July 18, 2021 by Jennifer Moore Leave a Comment

You finish one sewing or quilting project and there’s a ton of scraps left over – what do you do with them?

Sharing my way of categorizing different sizes of scrap fabric and what types of projects I tend to use them for. Also a quick tutorial for making quilted hexagon mug rugs / hot pads and coasters.
