I like to make samplers, and scraps are perfect for those, with a unifying fabric for sashing and cornerstones made of scraps. I recently found a great book - The Big Book of Scrap Quilts - which has 77 patterns. It is super and has given me quite a few new ideas. I also like a pattern for scrappy stars that I found on Eleanor Burns' Quilt in a Day website - it has 16 patches made from 2" squares in the centers and is quite easy.

I think my favorite is one I just finished...It is a tumbler quilt....I put 1 scrap color and then a print on print off white
between each one. It turned out much nicer then I expected. Made a queen size and will probably make another.

Your scrappy quilt is beautiful and looks perfect on the bed. I agree that Jenr8r posted were great and easy to follow. I made a scrappy twin size quilt following her tutorial a year or so ago. I always planned to make a queen size one , when I get back to sewing on the machine. My twin one was all hand sewn while laid up in bed. Thanks for sharing your masterpiece.

I agree with others who suggested Bonnie Hunter & Mary's quilts. Another good one is called 'Bust Yo Scraps'.

had to look up the depression quilt Justabitcrazy mentioned. Didn't know the name, but I have made that quilt before. It always turns out great.
