I used the pic of the original quilt that BH used and drafted it to use 2.5" squares. I'm changing the solid square in a square to use an hourglass set on point for the inner square, using more candies. Bonnie is using much smaller pieces in her quilt.
It's going to use 82 yellow and 82 red for the hourglass blocks, and then 800 assorted dark squares for the chain part. I went through my two totes and pulled what I want to use, and even after pulling almost 1,000 squares out, they are still full, just not packed full. I'm going with one fabric for the background.
