Just had what I hope is a bright idea. . .since I have smaller pieces of several coordinating fall color fabrics. . .how about doing the leaves scrappy? If I do that I will only need a small amount of each fabric. And can still make 12 all alike.

question...."doing the leaves scrappy?" does this mean that the leaf itself could have different pieces/patterns within itself, yet all 12 squares would be the same?
That's ok as long as they are still all alike :)
