So I just completed my second full quilt, and officially love quilting. But I didn't start out with what you would call sucsess. My very first quilt top escaped its dedicates bag in the wash and was torn apart by my old crappy, cranky washer about 3 months ago.

I finally had the courage do do a bit of an autopsy and I salvaged some of the squares... mostly. After the seems being yanked apart and twisted and frayed in the washer what I'm left with is some uneven, irregular sized squares between 4 and 2 3/4 inches. I ironed them out and whats left is actually in good condition after trimming off the frayed edges.

The only idea I have so far, is trimming them down to 2 inches. But I would love some other ideas. Thanks! You guys rock.
