She'll clip the points on the whites and add a white 2 1/2" sashing. What she's done so far is fabulous! She sets the blocks by her machine (all 2 1/2" ones) in "light and dark" piles.......
Boy would i love to see that quilt!
A while back I volunteered to clean up and organize bags of fabric donated to our guild. There were many bags of squares of various sizes. One of our members sorted them by size and sewed the same size squares into strips, she then sashed the strips into a large quilt top. It was very attractive, used up a ton of different sized squares coordinated by the sashing.
