Use as many or a few scraps as you like. Instructions include rotary cutting and AccuQuilt cutting. For the sample quilt, I used black with white dots for the main pinwheels. The secondary pinwheels are made from bright scraps. The background was made from a white tone-on-tone and white fabric with black dots.
You can scrap up all the backgrounds using low volume prints or light fabrics and scrap up the pinwheels as much as you like.
Use fat quarters to make this out of the world quilt. The block is called Star of the East and can be paper pieced or cut with the AccuQuilt Star of the East Block on Board.
This is your chance to use your larger chunks of scraps. Pair light and dark fabrics with a good contrast. Use rotary cutting or the AccuQuilt Fabric Cutting System.

This quilt uses left over 2-1/2" wide strips or Jelly Rolls. It resembles the layout called Many Trips Around the World but in a scrappy way.
This is a Short Cut Quilt Pattern available for free from The Fat Quarter Shop. I have made several of these quilts because they are fun and easy to make. Pick a layer cake and a background and you're off!
