Love that you show a real working studio space not the “ decorative version of a sewing space “. In order to work on many projects at one time my fabrics need to be organized and even placed into project boxes with labels and instructions for the remaining steps. That way I can be super productive with my work time. You are so inspiring!

Tiffany, This video has really spoke to me. I teach a free quilting class & provide all the supplies & sewing machines. So saying that, I am thrilled to receive any scraps from anyone. I have struggled to have a good dependable scrap organization process. You have honestly inspired me with a process that I can actually do from go, with out stopping due to a scrap that doesn’t fit my cutting process. This is going to be my new absolute process! Thank you so much for touching on and showing the difference the ironing makes. Saving space is a real need in my class room! You are an amazing lady. Thank you from Oklahoma!

My late mom was a very talented seamstress and quilter. She passed away almost 10 years ago. She had a closet full of fabric and scraps. I filled up half my attic LOL. I am learning how to quilt small projects finally. I've been crocheting for 18 years. I have cut up some of the fabric into strips and made fabric yarn. Makes great crochet rugs. All of the very small pieces not sewing worthy are great for stuffing crochet projects such as amigurini, pillows, etc. I have mixed them with fiberfill. I am now tackling organizing the rest of her stash. Organizing yarn scraps is another beast lol..... Thank you for sharing all of your tips!❤

Do you think you'll ever use or even find any pieces you really want in a particular quilt or does it matter? I realize u like scrappy quilts but saving all these scraps makes me dizzy lol. I have one big box of my favorites only. All in different sizes but nothing smaller than 2 1/2". Just don't have the room to store. I am the opposite of you in this. I am a nutty gotta know what is where so I can grab and sew. Do you go through these boxes and piles to get what you want I guess is what I want to know. Second do u want ppl to send you such small scraps or would you rather get larger pieces? Happy sewing☺️

@@pattiecoxey I go through when I am looking for something specific. Most tomes it's grab and sew. When it comes to people sending fabric I like when they send big pieces cause gives me more to work with. But I've never minded what they send. I use it all eventually. When I buy fabric I buy 2 yards instead of 1 and or 2 jelly rolls or whatever. Just incase so I always have more to work with. But I make lots of scrappy quilts. I enjoy the process.

I’m starting to do some of this cutting down 2-2 1/2 inch squares, 5” squares, 10” squares, but..not cutting up all of it. Your collection likes good, I’ve only been sewing for little over 2 years now but…not as often as everyone else on U-tube. Im learning still, but….need to get busy, but Im disabled so I can only do so much in a day, my health issues keep me feeling uncomfortable every single day. But..I continue to do my best.

Wow, wow, wow!! You are amazing! I cut only 10", 5", and 2.5" squares. Strips - 2.5", 2", and. 1.5". Then fat quarters, then full width up to 1 yard, and then yardage. I have fabric pieces big enough to be backings. Then leftover or pre-cut binding. I store fabrics I bought together (or are collecting) for a project in separate project bins. Then I have kits (please don't ask a lot of questions about this). Then purchased, complete layer cakes, charm packs, jelly rolls. Partial pre-cuts are mixed in with the sizes cut above. Then I have a string bin - 1" to less than 2.5", any length greater than 5". Then the crumb bin - bigger than 1". Then the trash bin. lol. There is also the bin of fabrics to send to Tiffany. What goes in here? Fabrics that have already been used in 2 or more quilts, fabrics for projects I will never make, things I think you will like, other interesting stuff.

Great to see your system of scraps very similar to mine. I hv mine in bags and tins . Triangles in bags smaller cuts like 1 and 1½in to 5 in all goes in separate tins according to their sizes. I usually iron and starch my material anyway before cutting them so these scraps are already nice and crisp and i also have strips of 1½ to 5 in as well in tins. My tin on of them are now starting to over burst!!! Looks like i might need a new outlet or move the strips to another place temporarily whilst using up the squares.

The light square on your mat just inside the 1st outer dark square, is 10" I'm pretty sure. To use for measuring quickly 👍💙

I have started to cut up all of the FQs I have collected (or hoarded?) into 2.5, 3, 4, 5 & 10 inch squares and strips, as those are the sizes that I tend to use most. I have found that by cutting the FQs down into smaller sizes makes it easier to use!

I’m exhausted watching you, girl! Your energy level is impressive. I’ll apply part of your strategies to my tons (literally!) of scraps. Might just keep some of bigger ones and send anything- other than string-strings - smaller than 2.5 off to a new home. I’m finally to a place where drawing a line has become mandatory. Great vid. Very helpful. Thank you, Tiffany. ❤

😂 I do the same, I will throw anything away that is less than 1". I have my bins of orphan blocks, 2 1/2" strips, strings, hst's, 1", 1 1/2" 2", 2 1/2" and 3" squares. I always refold my fabric and they go back on the shelf. I have decided this year to start cutting my smaller pieces into squares, strings or stripes. If I have a tiny corner missing, 1/8" I will still cut it as a square. That part will be in the seam, so why worry? Right? 😂

I’m working on my scraps. Using 10”papers and sewing strips diagonally onto the papers. Then I trim off the fabric that hangs over and make 10” squares. I may use the squares for a bedspread for our king-sized bed.

The scrap buckets: you put it in a pillowcase to make a dog bed in shelter. Very confort. Or ina "bubble quilt " to make a mattress! Right now, I am making a kid mattress with scrap like your to put inside.

I use to do that, but now our local shelter does not take fabric beds cause the dogs tear them up and then eat the fabric and sad things happen from there. So they don't accept them no more. I have a guy a city over that takes it all for pillow case beds at his rescue center.

@@TiffanysQuiltingLife No I have not used them yet. I am in a slump at the moment but I did make 2 more cross-over bags with extra zippered pockets in them. I used mine when I went to the Brisbane quilt show on Wednesday. Not much fabric there that I wanted to buy. For a change, I DID NOT BUY ANY FABRIC that day but I was really sore in my legs and back from walking up all those stairs. 16 in all. I was glad to be home as I could barely walk for the next few days.
