I'm kind of getting into the scrappy quilt thing. Been buying up various purples for a scrappish Cathedral quilt and various greens for a Winding Ways quilt. Kind of a "faux scrappy" as I'm not using various bits and pieces left over from other projects.

I think a reason why quilters make them is the idea that if you save enough scraps from other quilting projects you can make a whole quilt from them. That's kind of amazing when you think that a whole quilt top was made from something that could of ended up in the waste basket.
