I don't have a pattern or picture to share but I went to an Amish quilt show many years ago and they had a quilt and they were all 2 in or 2.5 inches. But they had arranged them into hearts, with white squares between. I have an old photo but not at home to be able to scan it. They had all different fabrics for the hearts except each one had a red square in the middle.

What a great find. I love a challenge like that. At our Project Linus events, I always check out the challenge box. It's like putting a jigsaw puzzle together making it all work into something wonderful. Please post a picture for us.

I did a search for Postage stamp quilts. Ooh! The eye candy! Hope you find one you like!

Another thought, have you ever tried hexgons? Hand sewn? 2.5" squares work very nicely for 1" hexies. Also a scrappy Burgoyne Surround?? https://www.google.com/search?q=burg...FUo5iAodxbwE8A
