I saw the trunk show for "Sunday Morning Quilts" and it was fabulous.
The neatest thing was the quilts were all made from actual scraps- they didn't buy fabric or cut into stash for them. (Except one: apparently she made the quilt, didn't love the colors and then only had like 4 days to make it again, so she had to cut into some of her stash to get enough scraps in the new colorway.)

There is a tute on this board using adding machine paper to sew small scraps on 3 x 1/2 inches. Those strips can be sewn together and used as fabric.

I have given up buying books on scrappy quilts as there are so many lovely ones online, Bonnie Hunters and Maryquilts to name just two.

Ditto what Lori S said. I have lots of scrap quilts books, but these are my favorites!
