    If you have shades of color - very light, light, med light, medium, medium dark, dark, very dark you could create a rainbow effect, or give the appearance of a watercolor quilt if you cut the pieces small.

    I love scrappy! I am starting to work on one with baby prints...the only thing is...you need to add a few solids into it...too busy otherwise.

    I love scrappy! In my world, they have to be bright and cheerful. There just isn't much about me that is pastel :thumbup:

    Love, love, love all the scrappy quilts. Quite a few of my quilts are scrappy. I cut my scraps in to strings or 6 1/2" squares. Lately I've been cutting some 5" squares. I just finished the top of one called Church Windows. It's 6" strings with a narrow black boarder. I post it after I quilt it.
    Each scrappy quilt I've seen today was beautiful.

    Wow some great scrappy quilts !! Love them. Scrap quilts have a real PERSONALITY and life to them. I am tired of all the boring matchy-match quilts too ...
    Scrappies are my favs and by far the most popular of all I've made for gifts & donations ... only problem is, they still haven't made much of a dent in my stash !! Scrappies just seem to be everyone's favorite kind of quilt ... cozy & easy to love :)
