    I am a scrapper!
    I just love a good scrappy quilt.
    They remind me of the older days when you used what you had to make a quilt. :D

    I do both. I try to be thrifty, so cannot stand to toss scraps - they go into bins sorted by color, & when I paper piece, small applique or do English paper piecing, I can usually find what I need in the bins - however, it does add too much to my fabric stash.

    I do both, but I enjoy looking at my scrappy's, they're like a walk down memory lane, reminding me of the planned quilts that were done and given away.

    I'm not a scrapper.....a little too chaotic for me.....i like a little more symmetry and order, I'm afraid! :-)

    I do both, but even if it is a planed pattern I still usally use several fabrics of the same color But I love scrappies the most

    I admire preplanned two or three color quilts but, I "think" scrappy. Love them all and I am evolving.

    Working on my first scrappy now and love it. I have the piecing done and just need the borders and will be quilting by machine. Will probably end up being both because I love the different types of creativity.
