I don’t know about you but I keep my fabric scraps. They seem to coming in handy for project just like this cute little three tiered flower pin from the blog Argot. She uses it to dress up a cute apron that has a pocket made from one of the same fabrics.

I also keep scrap fabrics and don’t know what to do with it. I have often given away large chunks of fabric I don’t want anymore to craft vendors at places like the Farmer’s Market for free. At least they can reuse it, make it into something cool and make some profit.
But, as for the little bits of fabric, Oy, what a chore. It’s hard to think of something nice and/or useful to do with it other than chuck it in the garbage.
You can use scraps of thin fabric to make greetings cards. I folded A4 pieces of stiff paper into 3 panels and cut out stars and Christmas tree shapes in the middle panel. Then I stuck the fabric scraps on the back of the card to cover the empty shapes. Then I folded back the first panel to cover the rough side, and glued it down. Hey presto, one Christmas card!
