Math people check me please? (6 divided by 1.5 = 4 or 1/4th the side of the block for the strip... so 5 divided by 4 = 1.25" for the strip?)
Yes, this is the pattern link....

I just used 5" squares and a 1" strip in between because it looked better than anything bigger. I also did not work on this quilt continually as it would get boring. Did about 5 - 10 squares a day. My quilt is about a large size lap quilt, but certainly it is easy to make larger.
Thanks for everyone's positive comments, love this board.
