Beautiful! I am in a war with my scraps and my stash both. I am not sure they don't multiply while we sleep. I am teaching some new quilters and supplying them with lots of fabric for learning with as well.I have a great pattern for 1 1/2 " scraps in lights and mediums with a 1 1/2 yard or so consistent color in one location. It is awesome and is a log cabin variation. Actually someone posted something similar as a triangle log cabin a few weeks ago. Careful placement of the whites or very lightest makes it a snowflake.

Is this a pattern you can freely share, or can you send me to it?

Here are some pics of my scraps that I finished (mostly) cutting up on Monday. This is why I must use them.

Wow... you can wage war on my scraps any day! I say I will spend a day cutting them later and later just never seems to show up, LOL. Beautiful quilts!
