In today's vernacular, scrappy does not suggest cheap or made of scraps -- just the use of many varied fabrics. A scrappy quilt would be something of the opposite of a planned placement design. Almost everything I make is scrappy, because that's the look and way of working I like. I never obsess over exact matches or yardage requirements. If I want to use some yellow, I will use 12 different yellows of similar value and hue. And 25 ddifferent whites. That's a scrappy approach.
