Quiltville 'Fourth of July' used a lot of 2 1/2" squares with a [ATTACH=CONFIG]572729[/ATTACH]background fabric and two other colors(these could be scrappy, too, as long as you choose darker squares. Google Quiltville Fourth of July and look at the blue one). You could use more by making them part of the border, too.
