No formula, as far as I know.
Basically I took the two different kinds of blocks, and sewed them together, over and over again so I had a bunch of rectangles that were of two different kinds of blocks. Then I sewed them together with all opposite blocks touching.... does that make sense?
I suppose I could have made it square, rectangle, or really really long and skinny depending on how many rows of each...
Check this out, maybe it will be more clear than I've been. :oops:
