One approach is to disregard the color...go with light and dark. With scrappy it's more about contrast...not about color combination. Try not to focus on what a single block looks like...think about how the quilt top will look. kwhite's pictured example is visual proof that everything will go together beautifully if the contrast is there...and the smaller patches make all those scraps sparkle. It's hard for some of us to break the matchy matchy habit...but it can be so much fun...and so liberating! Good for you for actually cutting your scraps into useable shapes...you're halfway there... Good luck!
