I do scrappies when I have lots of little pieces laying around. I never like to start them, but am always impressed at how nice they look when I am finished.

I love scrappy. I spent all day yesterday going through my scraps and cutting it up into 1" strips, 2" blocks, 1.5" strips, and 2.5" strips. Not for the same quilt, just for collection to eventually make scrappy quilts using uniform size scraps.

I only got 1/4 of the way thorugh my scraps. Had to stop, my shoulder started cramping up from cutting so much.
