Every time you finish a sewing project, a small pile of fabric scraps gets left behind on the cutting table. It’s easy to toss those awkward geometric cutoffs and thin strips into the bin, but those leftover scraps are actually some of the most versatile materials in your sewing room (that's probably why I have several boxes full of them...).

So here's a small guide to organizing, prepping, and stitching your fabric scraps into useful, gorgeous creations.
