For those that asked...I made the blocks by just simply sewing scraps together haphazardly in large strips or squares then cut out 6.5 inch blocks. Then I took the left overs from each cutting and sewed those together or with other odd scraps and cut more blocks. The only thing I tried to do was not to have the same color or pattern in the same block. I have 48 blocks now and am still working on more. I plan to make a large quilt for a full size bed as the bed cover and then matching curtains, pillows and a wall-hanging to tie in together for one of our spare bedrooms. I love all the feed back that has been given. Thanks!
