LOL, should make quite an interesting scrappy quilt using bigger scraps for the square part and then more scraps in the "crazy" curved part.
This old gal would have to applique the quarter circle rather than try to piece it into the square part.

Being a true scrapper, I only use scraps of all sizes and colors. Toss the scraps in a bag, or basket, and pull them out and sew. More information then you asked for. Have fun with it. Your friends will love them. Eileen
