I cut mine when I got to 8-strips wide. I really like yours with the smaller blocks. I think I'll try that size next. What size did you end up with? Did you use all the strips?
Some of the strips in the roll are polkadots. I think that would look nice if you used a multicolor polkadot on white.
I used every strip and had zero waste or left over. I will go ahead and do the white on white tone border and then bind with the pink fabric that has some white polka dots on it. I intuitively knew it needed a border. I just didn't want to do it:< Sometimes you need a push to get off your rear end. Each block is 5 strips. so the blocks finish off at 5 inches.
I have 3 more of these honeybuns to use. I'm going to try and do a different pattern for each one.
