Scrappy can be many things. I take scraps but I do organize them in some way. It might not be apparent to anyone else but it makes sense to me. So I might pick a color theme, all thirthies, all brights or just a one background fabric. Part of that planning is what is the fun to me. I like to stick everything in a quilt batiks, Hawaiian, reproduction 30-ies, reproduction Civil War, contemporary, prints, novelty. I guess by your standards I might not be a scrap purist since I buy just FQ to be used in a scrappy quilt. I really never buy yardage to amke a quilt with just three or four colors. Even the quilt in my avatar has many different oranges, whites and green eventhough it looks like a three tone quilt.
