If I go the easy route, I could just make it with all of my black and white fat quarters, which is SO tempting! But I also LOVE the look of a scrappy quilt!
It's such a BIG ordeal to go through my scraps because seriously they're in several places in my sewing room. Things got all unorganized when I moved my sewing room last year when I got my longarm. I was keeping my scraps in two of those rolling drawer towers, organized by color. Then in my manic cleaning craziness one day, I decided to dump one of those towers into a big plastic bin and just get rid of the tower. Don't ask me what I was thinking. Now it's a little overwhelming to even think about going through them.
Anywho....back to the Stargyle quilt! I'm thinking I'll most likely use my fat quarters because I have a ton of black. And why not make a black star quilt? I think that would be pretty cool! But I could totally change my mind between now and the time I climb the stairs to sort my scraps.
