I sat here and sorted all of these squares that were in a zipper bag out of that ladies stash. Oh my gosh there are a ton of them. I kept enough of them to use in some quilt tops for the quilts for kids. They range in size from about 3 1/2 inches to 4 1/2 inches or so...and they are ALL HAND CUT. I can still see some of the pencil lines. Amazing I wonder what she had planned for them. But here they are MINUS what I kept and it was probably about 1/2 as many as that are in the picture.

Pencil lines? I haven't thought about that forever! That is the way my Mom and I used to cut fabric (early 70's) before rotary cutters became available. I think I just dated myself! lol
