I recently watched a YouTube that showed stacking fabric, shuffling, and re-sewing. I gave it a try too! Is it a new craze or fad? I stacked some blues and yellows, 10" squares. I did a simple straight cut into 2" squares. It went ok with a stack of 6, but I think you have to be careful to use good contrast fabrics, because my shuffle of the 2-color palette left a little to be desired. Then I cut some strips, cut some 2" squares and made 4 more blocks. It's hard to tell which were the stacked blocks and which were not stacked, so that's why it's ok... but I think I'd go with only 3 squares to cut if I try that method again. I'll say, though, it's a great way to make up a set of blocks very quickly! Whoo hoo!
