I think I've finally figured out what most of you were describing here. I couldn't get the Missouri Quilt tutorial out of my head that I posted earlier and was struggling with how I could take that method and translate it to look like the square I posted originally. So I did what someone mentioned earlier, I googled string method and found this wonderful tutorial (
http://filminthefridge.com/2009/04/2...pieced-method/) that will create squares exactly like I want. So, I guess I will be doing the paper piecing method, but that should let my squares be pretty much perfect. It is funny how brains get stuck thinking one way, then all of a sudden a new concept is presented and everything falls neatly into place. I'm so excited to start this quilt. Now, I just need to figure out how many different colors I'm going to use and how much fabric to get of each color. Thank you all soooooooo much for your help! All your ideas and comments lead me to figuring this out.
