One way to make yourself do a truly scrappy quilt is to put the pieces in a brown paper bag, pull and use a piece from the bag with out critiquing the order or the match. Some of the most beautiful quilts and afgans(sp) are put together regardless of matches. I know it is hard to do...but truly a beautiful result. I think the only thing that really matters when making a scrappy quilt is using each of the pieces more than once.This allows the eye to roam all over, taking it all in.
