You're right, it would... but I have a drawer full of squares already cut, from trimming scraps. I am determined to get those used up! I had a variety of white and WOW strips so I was able to use those up too. Still have a bunch of print squares, probably enough for 6 more of these quilts. And about four times that many of 2.5" squares! Lucky I like piecing....

So you used left over whites as well... And the simple quilting lines finish it off so well..sew cute.
..creative juices flowing....what if you used 2 1/2" squares in a 15x15 square setting...put it on point ...cut 2 21" squares on the diagonal for setting triangles...oh and if you wanted to use 2 " squares you would need a 20x20 block setting...a left over 3/8 of a yard for the corners would be put to good use...oh sew many ideas......

Friend, I love your pretty colorful baby quilt. You did a great job using all those 2" squares. That is a cute backing too. Just perfect for the baby quilt. Great Job! You do such nice work, and are a real busy bee too.

It never ceases to amaze me what comes out of scraps. Well done.

No how cute is that? I don't think it can get any better. Really nice baby fabric on the back too.
