Scrap sizes: Bonny Hunters' scrap user guide as presented by Kay de Jongh

 Kay de Jongh reminded us of Bonny Hunters' ideas on how to utilize scraps.

The suggested sizes to cut your fabrics are:

  • Any pieces bigger than 12", cut into strips in sizes  1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2" and 3 1/2"
  • Any strips shorter, you can cut into squares of 1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2" and 3 1/2" or
  • bricks of 2 x 3 1/2", 2 1/2 x 4 1/2", 3 1/2 x 6 1/2"
  • Larger pieces of fabric can be cut into squares of 10 1/2". Join the squares to create backing fabric for your next quilt.
