scrapy quilt just getting laid out...this time with picture

Yep, scrappy's drive me crazy too, it's hard to get one to look really random cause then I think this or that pattern is too close together and I'd be changing them all around and still getting something 'wrong'. (In my mind that is. :) )
I do agree here....except for one thing: I am NOT a scrappy person :oops: . It's not that I don't like them, in fact, I really do like them; but getting the scraps really random drives me nuts. I never think they're really right.
This scrappy quilt is darling!

Thanks again, everyone. It is starting to grow on me. I like the white sashing, and my friend requested it, so it is staying. I find that I like white in quilts, though I know it isn't what everyone prefers. Then...and I keep forgetting...this isn't really my quilt.
I haven't got much more done, but when I do, I will post a picture of the finished top.

I love your scrappy! The white sashing gives it a modern look. I just started making scrappies in the last year or so and had a hard time with it at first - matchy-matchy you know! After making a couple of them, I love them now! I have been quilting for 25 years, so you can only imagine my scrap bins! I actually did put them in paper bags (one for darks and one for lights)and sewed them in the order I took them out unless I got 2 the same in a row. It turned out stunning!
