DDuMouchel I used bricks 3 1/2 x 6 1/2 for the rectangle pieces. I strip sewed the smaller blocks with sashing. White sashing is 1 1 /2 inches wide and the two colors on either side were 3 inches wide. I subcut the unit 2 1/2 inches wide. I sewed sashing ( 1 1/2 inches wide) to the large rectangle and then sewed the strip sewed subcut to this making the block 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 unfinished. (You could strip sew the sashing to the 3 1/2 inch strip but I already had my bricks cut). The placement of the blocks is totally random. I added 3 1/2 white border.
