When I have small scraps cut from making binding (the little triangle pieces) or other little scraps I throw them on a pile by my desk. These scraps are usually on their last chance to be made into a project. Scraps larger than these go into the scrap bin. It makes a mess for a month or two until I'm in the mood to process them through my Accuquilt dies. The little red triangles are from making binding.
I needed to add to my. 1.5" HST (1" finished block) stash. If a scrap can make 2.5" squares, I am a big fan of stocking up on those as well. Here they are all in their little piles ready to go to their storage bins.
I'm linking up at Love, Laugh, Quilt for Monday Making.

Those 2.5-inchers will be handy if you plan to quilt along with Autumn Jubilee.
Your patience with the tiny pieces inspires me.
I need to take a day to organize some of my scraps too. They tend to pile up quickly. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
Love that Pink Waffle quilt, BTW. I've been sorting scraps too lately and have two small projects on the go using them up. I'm determined to throw away the bits this time.
You have a great system to keep your scraps under control. I haven't worked on mine - either using them or sorting the last box.
