Thanks for the heads up on the Mariners Compass book, Mirabelle. I went to Amazon and they still have it there...some as second hand...and I just ordered a copy plus her 50 Stars book. I have another idea for us...I just ordered Bonnie Hunter's Adventures with Headers and Enders. What if we just made it a year to use up our scraps while we do our other projects? That way we don't commit to another large project, no new fabric required, we help each other with a new discipline...all of us are not as dedicated to scraps as you are OKsewglad...and we each can have however many scrappy projects we care to do. I do remember OKsewglad mentioning something about a study in colors and that could easily be worked into a scrappy project too. I have a book, The Quilters Color Club by Christine E. Barnes that might be helpful.
