Thanks for your opinions.
Here are two quilts that used FQs - of course there is more yardage required for both. Scroll down - the first is a Krazy Quilt - I had yardage for the border and used FQs for the blocks. The Woven Ribbons comes from a book on FQs - I have the name on the photo and all the patterns in that book use FQs.

And, of course, scrappy strip quilts are always great.
Wow! Your crazy quilt looks awesome. That is a definite possibility!
