The pattern is from Fons and Porter Sept/Oct 2011, called Pick-Up Sticks. They have it as a scrappy. They say cut the blocks 5" then cut in half to make 2 1/2 x 5 rectangles. I just cut 2 1/2" strips and then sewed to white strips if it was wh-on-blk or blk strips if it was blk-on-wh, (I used 9 wh-on-blk and 9 blk-on-wh fq's, then just strip pieced them. It was a quick top to make (it stated easy in the mag, and they were right). Thanks for looking!!!
