I have never made a true scrappy quilt. I know, it sounds horrible. But I haven't. I always have fabric lines that I work with. And to me, that's not a scrappy quilt. I think a scrappy quilt is everything thrown in. I would really like to try one. I have two doctor bags full of scraps plus 5 draws full of scraps. I just get overwhelmed when I look at all that fabric. How do I choose what fabric to use? There's so many, many pieces, large and small. Half yards, yards, FQ, little pieces, strips, squares, etc. I wouldn't know where to start, so I haven't. I guess I could get a couple of laundry baskets out and dump all the fabric in those and mix it up and grab from it. But...first I have to find a pattern. Now I need a pattern. Where does it end?
