Have you tried lumberyard quilts. There are patterns out there. It basically uses scraps that are finished size: 2x2,2x4.4x4,2x6,2x8 sewn into blocks, then quilt. Very scrappy and turn out beautiful. I used up a lot of small scraps making those but still have smaller pieces to use. I have seen quilt with all size strips sewn then cut and sewn with "solid" in hst's Made beautiful quilt. These blocks can be turned to make differnt patterns to quilt like log cabin blocks.
