Then there's the 'make your own material from scraps' tutorial that was posted. Might be kind of neat to make our own material from scraps, swap, make something, then swap that item. (or swap back?)

My first one was a sort-of success. (It didn't fall apart or anything, but I totally free-handed it instead of planning out my quilting, because I was just playing around. But it works for me!

This was not any pattern. I just matched lenghs of fabric and if it looked ok together, I sewed it together. I just picked bright fabrics from my stash. This is a queen size quilt. I just finished a king size quilt with scraps on the back. I will take a picture and post it.

OK, I'm in. Max size or anything? or is 'scraps' just any "extra" fabric we have left over from other projects?

I am a miniaturist so you won't ever see anything big from me LOL

When I used to sell to a local gift shop she liked mostly scrappy looks. so most of what I made to sell was scrappy.
Here are a few of my favorites
