Thank you Florence. I do plan them, but I call my blocks scrappy because I did not buy a set of fabrics for them. I went through all my stash, picked out all the small print fabrics and tone on tones, and put them in large baggies by colors: blues, purples, yellows, etc., and I call this my Paper Piecing Stash. I do also buy new half yard pieces to add to my PP stash when something catches my eye. This system makes it very easy to decide on and pick out coordinating colors and/or color values. I love paper piecing!
