LOL, this one is not scrappy, I'm using a FQ bundle; usually, I go through my stash to see what I can add to the bundle, but with this bundle, nothing from my stash looked right. I'd describe them as watercolor florals (can't remember the name, and discarded the selvage trimmings). It reminded me of illustrations from a childhood book about a girl who found a floppy white hat in her Aunt's attic, and when she put the hat on, it took her to different places.
I did all the cutting at once. I divided the bundle into light and dark, and purchased the white and a very pale (possibly a little too pale) purplish fabric to serve as the aqua. I'm at the stage of adding the next white log.
