I have a small stack of squares, from Moda. The Fresh Air line. They are two inches. I do NOT know what to do with them! I got some of that size from craigslist for $1 and I was so tickled. I took one set and pulled squares by color, and made them go diagonally down. It isn't very big (still just a top) but I had a group to use as a part of the backing, also.
Lots of different colorways in the fresh air. Plum, Orange, deep red, green and brown. I pull it out and think, make half square triangles. And then I think, no -- add one color and do triangles that way. Don't wanna do the diagonal thing again, and there isn't a lot of each (mostly) colored piece. Most of the colors are in all of the pieces, you know how lines are - but not all the same. The arkansas star seemed like an option, but the squares aren't quite big enough!
I cannot tell you how many times I have gotten that thing out, and then put it back!
