I like you, want everything in order. I started my "freedom" quilting by making 3 crazy quilts for my grandkids, but I still was very aware of matching colors next to each other, etc. I then made a 3" charm quilt. After cutting my squares, I threw the blocks in the dryer on air and let them mix. then I put them in a bag, and took them out without looking. I was able to "let go' this way and it actually turned out very nice. If I could ever figure out how to post pics, I would.
