And cutting lots of 2-1/2" squares for a 6" finished block. We'll see how it goes when putting it together.
Now that I have my scraps cut into squares, I hope to strip piece the ones I cut from larger pieces of fabric. Those little 1-1/2" squares will be a pain to work with.
JudyG this is how I corral my little squares b4 sewing. works great.
