Doing my first one today and it's a scrappy...that's why I decided to do it. If I don't care for it enough to keep or gift, I can always donate. I'm getting rid of scraps ....that's a good thing. I lurked during the recent Bh mystery and didn't really care for BH design for me personally but the quilts were lovely...and some of the quilters produced their version, colors, finishes, and they were amazing. In future, of not scrappy, I'll write steps down and decide after the reveal.
