I don't know how you all get two blocks out of a F8. I usually use so much there isn't anything left. But oh how I appreciate them!!
Depending on the pattern you're making and how many fabrics you can add to the block decides if there'll be enough focus fabric left for a second simple block. Most of my bonus blocks will be based on a 9 patch variation of some kind. When someone requests a 2 color block, no way you'll have enough left for a second one. I'm just enjoying seeing what I can come up with with the scraps and still have it be the focus of the block.
