Get aook on Strip Quilting. I saw a background square (10-1/2") as the base. Pin a strip (use the widest)diagonally to the base, put another strip (any width) right side to right side and stitch a 1/4" seam. Press. Lay another strip (again any width) on the second strip right side to right side and stitch. Continue until you get to the end of the base. Make the last strip a wide one so it doesn't get lost at the end. Do the same on the other side. Square off. You now have a 10" block. I'm not sure how you can put these blocks together; a book on strip quilting or your local quilt shop should be able to help you. Good Luck!
