So many wonderful suggestions here. I recently got the book "Crazy for Scraps" by Sally Scheider. It has patterns for 19 different scrap quilts and strategies for how to make an effective scrap quilt like "coordinated block method", "fabric menu" method and just seperating into values of light and dark. I have several scrappies on my bucket list in various stages of production and many in my mind. For examples I have a lot of red and green scraps that I am saving for a Christmas quilt. I have a scrappy log cabin done in 1 1/2" size logs that has been a WIP for a very long time now. That one is fun to watch come together as my tastes in fabric has changed so much over the years. I want to do one in all blues. I also have a bunch of HST in light and dark value of all different colors left over from another quilt that I have big plans for. I did a PIF here as well with some of my older stash that the fabric just wasn't my taste any more.
