Scrappy Quilt
I have maybe 150 - 200 misc 4 inch fabric squares. Some are a solid color but most are prints. There are 5 or 6 squares of each fabric. They are all cotton fabric. What type of scrappie quiilt would ou make using these squares?

Add a neutral & they would be perfect for a single Irish chain.
I made a 60x60" pattern with 2" finished squares & needed 169. I needed an additional (52) 2" squares in cream and another (52) 2x6" rectangles in cream, plus (12) 10" feature blocks.
You could do 3.5" finished squares and 3.5x10.5" finished rectangles to get a nice large quilt (if my math's right, it would be something like 105" square plus borders).

You can think of it this way too. You have approx. 100 4" squares and 400 2" squares! Add a white and make something like this:
Pattern is called Patches and Pinwheels and is free from Bonnie Hunter.
