Thanks!
I applique them to oversized plain squares. Then, after they are all finished and the alternate blocks are made, I square them up to be the same size as the alternate blocks. Then I put it all together. When you applique, the blocks end up kind of "wonky" so you always start with a square that is too big so you can clean it all up at the end.
