A rail fence just might be the ticket! Thanks!

Trisher,
Somebody on this board paid good money for a bag of scraps that closely matches your description. Will also be watching this thread to see what to do.

This is the prettiest fence rail quilt I have ever seen. I want to make it one day. I love the background color Shade of blue , I think?

The possibilities are endless. I know I could find something to do with them. Lucky you.

If there are fabrics I don't like, I don't use them. Wouldn't want them taking away from the fabrics I do like and think are pretty. So if it were me, I would pick through them and weed out the ones your not fond of, and then try and pick out some coordinating fabrics and use them for smaller projects, like making pouches or totes or pot holders or mingling some of them into your existing fabric for larger projects. But that's me.

I would love to see it made like the Emma’s Star version loisf made or an on point fence rail. Anxious to see what you come up with.

Here's Emma's Star more scrappy, though it has a consistent RWB theme as it was a Quilt of Valor. [ATTACH=CONFIG]621089[/ATTACH]

Whole different look Irishrose2, on your Emma's Star. Isn't it amazing what we as quilters with our collections of fabrics can do!

Missouri Star's Cascade quilt might be an option.
