I was a scrappy quilt maker before I heard the expression.Mostly because I couldn't afford to buy several yds worth of fabric, so bought 1/4th yd at a time. When there was quite a bit, it was time to make a quilt.Usually from a mag or the one quilting book I owned.Never used old clothes, but that's great,if you have enough to cut up.
Over the yrs, found I hated making one color quilts.When I did, they went to family.None of them like scrappy.....that's ok, they're all mine :-) This is one of 2 made with all triangles.
