there are many scrap quilt books on the market and there is even a scrap quilt magazine- you can of course just make scrappy blocks when ever you see a new one you want to make- or have an idea for- or just feel like making a few scrappy blocks---then when you have enough blocks to make a quilt lay them out & decide on a layout you like- sometimes you need to decide on a color to bring it all together- adding sashings or something to make it all work- sometimes just putting the blocks together works great....browse the galleries of scrap blocks/quilts & make ones as you have scraps and like one---the great thing about scrappy quilts is you don't have to have a plan...and you never have to worry about running out of a particular fabric- when you run out of one you simply start using a different one.

Scrap quilts can be so fun and relaxing. I am working on a scrappy Dresden Plate quilt that will hopefully be done all by hand. Hee, Hee....will see if I can actually stick to that plan. But what makes a scrappy quilt fun (for me) is not worrying about matching colors. Just lights and darks. Plus, they are projects that you can make one block at a time over a long period of time; or with any pattern that you find.

Thanks for the help, everyone. I will check out the suggested links. Bonnie Hunter's page I've seen before but I will look at it again.
