Honestly I think a scrap quilt... Any quilt for that matter when made is always beautiful. I am actually working on my first scrap quilt ever right now! I did lay the strips out but only to make sure one of the same piece of fabric didn't get too clumped in one area. Like it said I think a scrap quilt looks beautiful no matter what, especially when you can look and say "that piece is on so-and-so quilt.. Adds character.. And the no rhyme or reason but cohesiveness to it makes it amazing!
Maybe I don't know that much... Like I said I'm on my first scrap quilt too :)
Good luck and can't wait to see what youve come up with!
