There is scrappy and controlled scrappy. To me scrappy is just that, from this and that. Controlled scrappy is something done from all different same color family fabrics, ie all different blue fabrics, black/white fabrics, etc. I do some planned quilts but my heart is scrappy! This year is the year of the scrap quilt at my house, I am trying to use up my stash and my left over scraps. So far I have made 1 baby quilt from scraps/stash and am working on a third quilt that the top will be from scraps, I will only buy the backing.
