I once did a quilt with 125 fabrics, yet I don't consider it scrappy. There were 24 blocks and 5 values. I used cool greens and purples. I had 25 (just in case one didn't work) fabrics of each value. [ATTACH=CONFIG]417429[/ATTACH]
There are 8 blocks in each panel and made to look like a triptic with the dividing bars. At a retreat I watched a friend pick each of the pieces for each block. I decided there had to be an easier way. So I cut one of each of the pieces from all 25 of the fabrics that matched that value. Arranged them on a design wall, so they were pleasantly arranged. The pattern is an unpublised, non-copyrighted pattern. It doesn't have a name. None of the quarter circles have the same radius and the seams are not intended to meet. I think it would have been improved if the radius had been more different. This is an advanced level pattern.
This is one of my favorite quilts. I'll probably never to it again.
