Making scrappy quilts? I've decided to make a quilt for my husband and I and thought I could use some of my favorite outdoorsy/nature fabrics (so I can use up some scraps) Well I'm starting it and I just can't get past the fact that they don't all coordinate. I've looked at some scrappy quilts on here and think they look amazing! But I'm having a hard time doing it!
I just got some really cool fabric from the Minnesota shop hop that is going on right now..but like other people I can only get so much at a quilt shop. So I'm trying to improvise and use some of what I already have.
Anyone else felt this way or am I just crazy?

I have the same problem making scrappy quilts. Even when I try to make a random pattern, it ends up with a sort of symmetry.
Maybe it's all the math classes I've had over the years.
I just can't do something that isn't "figured out!"

No, i don't have any interest in scrappy quilts, maybe its just not your thing, some people are scrappy and some people are not, just do what you like. If you don't like the scrappy feel change it
