Nine patch? Four patch? Or just random patches like a mix of confetti?

Maybe you want to use other sizes and not make your quilt ONLY the postage patch pieces?

You could combine them with rectangles and make a pattern like this:

or use alternate blocks like this: http://quiltville.com/4patchfurrows.shtml
or with pinwheels in betwen like my avatar which is this pattern:

Have fun with it. I sure hope you all are gonna take pix and share the wonderful projects you're making with these little gems!
I'm going to combine mine with half-square triangles to make a Barn raising pattern.
