When I make a scrappy quilt, anything goes. I am using scraps. I sort my scraps into lights, mediums and darks and go from there. I use anything. Scrap quilts are my kids' favorites. They are the ones that are loved to death. The memories of other projects are in the scraps. I keep an eye out for scrappy patterns. I am currently working on Square Dancing with the Stars by Darlene Deon Designs. It's a great pattern.
