![]() ![]() If you have less scrap build up, maybe 1 or 2 sessions paired with a binge worthy show or movie will do the trick for you (lucky duck). You may even grow to resent your scraps and resort to tossing them in the garbage bin rather than taking the time to cut them properly (I have no idea how I stumbled upon this little gem of knowledge). You will be tempted to just push through but if you need multiple sessions to get through your scraps, you are going to burn yourself out doing long stretches.

So many pieces and sizes of fabric and what was I going to make with them? How am I ever going to keep up with this? I did enjoy fondling all my pretties but I still was left feeling overwhelmed. I spent days cutting them up at my dining room table after I had put my kids to bed for the night. So I went out and bought more containers to store my scraps in, one for each size.
