I am relatively new to quilting, have completed 2 T-shirt quilts and a couple of others, and have decided to do some actual building tops for quilts. I am finishing a Underground Railroad sampler and loved the construction aspect of the quilting. Now I have strips, squares (all sizes from 2 1/2" to 5") as well as other "collections" of materials.

I need guidance from you seasoned quilters as to how you move forward to a new quilt. I could take a collection of material I have and find a quilt top I like and get the remaining fabric, put something scappy together, or start something totally new - but I am having trouble getting enthused about all of the planning that goes into a new top when I already have some pieces. I do most of my sewing around clothing so this is a new though process for me and just looking for a bit of guidance to twist my brain around it.

Thank you for all of the pearls of wisdom that I know are coming.
