I know what you mean. I have tried scrap quilts a couple of times and it just doesn't work for me. I just really want those pieces to match!! I think I'm just too left-brained... which is why I pretty much stick to traditional quilt blocks... But I love the idea of just tossing them all in the air and let them fall where they may!!

I don't like scrappy, but I an thinking about trying this.

Sounds like fun. Please post a picture when it is finished.
