My first scrappy quilt was made from horrible fat quarters that I hated but felt I had to use up before I bought new fabric. I cut them into strips and/or blocks and jut closed my eyes when it came to adding the next piece and sewed. Everything was random. That's the hardest part of scrappy quilting....we keep wanting it to make sense..we want to control the out come. I think doing a scrappy quilt is a good way of loosing the creative bent that we all have and can be a big step to beginning to trust our sense of how to put together a "regular" quilt.
